I thought this would be dull (although a humanities major once, the classics don't thrill me). I was very pleasantly surprised, and finished the book with a desire to read more of George Eliot. Eliot has some good quotes, and an insight into human character -- e.g., "It is seldom that the miserable can help regarding their misery as a wrong inflicted by those who are less miserable."

This book was reminiscent of Le Miserable for me. A slow read with lots of details and character development until Silas finally finds happiness. Then it became exciting and more enjoyable to read.
