Great Expectations by Charles Dickens

Great Expectations by Charles Dickens
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I finally finished it! I started this about 16 months ago (apparently things were so easy with our 3 month old that I decided to get back into casual reading), and I finally finished it!

In general, I think I would have given it 2.5 or 3 stars, but the Goodreads definition of 3 stars is "I liked it," and I wasn't prepared to go that far. There were periods that I found pretty interesting, and there were sections that I was lucky to get through 2 pages before I was falling asleep. Overall, it wasn't a bad read for a classic, but felt a bit long-winded at times. It also had a lot of text where people were speaking and had weird accents that made it extremely difficult for me to read.

So glad to have finally conquered another "classic" and ready to read something a bit more enjoyable!
