A review by skinnercolin221
The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas
5.0
At a whopping 1,243 pages, this is the longest book I've ever tackled, but it flew by faster than many average-length novels. This speed is a testament to Dumas' mastery over flow, mystery, drama, and intrigue. The narrative feels fully three-dimensional, with even side plots contributing significantly to the main story. Characters are imbued with distinct personalities, enriching the tale even further. What's more, the book does more than entertain; it challenges us with thought-provoking lessons and philosophical questions.
I highly recommend it!
