The Count of Monte Cristo

I was recommended to read The Count of Monte Cristo by one of my high school AP English teachers.  I had no idea what to read and it was a requirement for the class to read so many pages a semester.  She recommended The Counto of Monte Cristo novel to me not only saying that it would keep my attention but that it would be a fun novel to read, and it was.  It kept my attention throughout the whole novel and I enjoyed reading it.  It was adventurous, mysterious, gripping, and cunning.  The novel had twists and turns throughout the book.  With the main character being undercover he could come up with ingenious plans on the go and how people fed into his plans was amazing. 

It's a story about the right and wrong, and the deed of revenge which in the end shows that it is never the way to go.  I would recommend it to anyone who loves adventurous novels.  Hopefully it will be as inspiring to you as it was to me.

  5. I loved the movie, but never read the book. I can assume the book is just as good, if not better.

  6. The book is amazing, in my opinion. I loved it. If you liked that book, i would recommend reading more classic novels. such as to kill a mockingbird or catch-22
