Well, I finished! I'm not sure what to say about Great Expectations without giving things away for those who haven't read it...
Overall, I have to say I was a little disappointed. It wasn't as exciting to read as I hoped it would be. I loved the story and the plot, but it seemed to take a LONG time to tell for such a simple plot-line. Maybe I missed the point?
I do love Dickens' writing style. The way he phrases things made me chuckle more than a few times. I'm not writing him off by any means and will be interested to read more by him.
I think Aunt Rae is the only one here who's read Jasper Fforde's books -- how does he justify his portrayal of Miss Havisham? Or maybe he doesn't....and is just being funny?
