Nick asked this question about The Count of Monte Cristo:
I would like to read the abridged version but I feel like I might be missing out on a big chunk of the story. Is this true?
Allie Yes please read the full version!! It might take more time but you can look up chapter summaries if you are confused. Shmoop is an excellent resource.…moreYes please read the full version!! It might take more time but you can look up chapter summaries if you are confused. Shmoop is an excellent resource. I think I will finish the book today! I was lucky and found an unabridged copy at Barnes and noble. Sometimes it might be hard to find. If the book is over a thousand pages then you know it is unabridged.(less)
