Just read this about 6 months ago. Very good book.
Awesome book. I think there is a bit in the middle where it suddenly slows a little into mundane Parisian life. But stick with it and pay attention. I thought it would take me ages to read but it flies by. One of my favourite books!
I read this book in high school and again a few years ago. Definitely one of my top five favorite books.
Dawn I totally agree about the middle slowing down.... Other than that 5 stars.
It's a big book by any standard with all kinds of characters and many twists and turns. Modern-day thriller writers better read this classic. Dumas is a past master of this genre.
I thought the best part was the vengeance V love angle, which is a stronger motivating factor? Which will win out?
I read this years ago - but it's one of those books that stays with you.
