 Community of Readers

Title The Count of Monte Cristo
Author Alexandre Dumas
Call Number PQ2226 .A35 1941  
Location 2nd Floor Humanities
Rating Highly Recommended
Book Review This book is a classic for a reason. While the 1,200+ pages are intimidating, the payoff at the end is worth the extensive build up. Monte Cristo deals with revenge, mortality, happiness, and morality with skilled nuance. If you are even a little petty at times, this book will bring you joy while making you think.
