3.5 stars. I did it! My very first classic. And I will admit, it was a rocky start. I was not used to the language and that took me forever to read a page. But as I slowly read it, I slowly got used to it and by the half way point, it didn’t bother me anymore.

There’s no doubt that Oscar Wilde was a beautiful writer and there are so many quotes from this book that I will cherish forever.

Other than that, I love the plot and the ending could not have been more perfect for me.
