I feel like this is a really good book if you want to introduce yourself to classics. It's slow at times but moves into fast intense reading at other points. I found myself growing in and out of love with characters and was left questioning intentions for time after reading. HOWEVER even though I loved this book I found the main character/narrator intolerable at times.
