Wow.

What an incredible story.

It wasn't at all like I assumed it would be, having heard of it as a classic tale of escape and adventure. My mind assumed the entire novel would head a completely different direction, but that's why you read the books.

This one was full of humble teachings and lessons right up until the very last sentence.

This is a true classic and a pretty easy – albeit, fairly long – read. It's funny, it's sad, it's redeeming.

Everyone should read "The Count of Monte Cristo."
