I am currently working on my Master's Thesis, but I procrastinate by reading all the books I can! In the meantime, I have a good job with fun people.

Middlemarch

Middlemarch
By George Eliot
0192817604

Interesting book. I liked it, then I didn’t, then I did. I almost stopped reading a bunch of times, but then decided to stick with it until the end. I ended up liking it on the whole, but with no desire to ever read it again. It was a little odd jumping from character to character the first time. I had just gotten to know a group and suddenly, Eliot jumped to a totally new cast! I don’t think I ever really got used to it, but I accepted it and it wasn’t as jarring after awhile. Most of the characters were likeable, and they were all flawed. I can see why this book is considered a classic and it’s author one of “the” authors of the world.
8/10
