Man. I’m still getting over finishing this book. I didn’t want it to end. Having seen the movie like, 20 years ago, I now realize I saw the sparknotes version if sparknotes were written by a teenager. The themes of the book were just so… modern? Way more intense than I expected. I really thought the whole story would be the revenge arch, but that almost seemed to take a secondary seat to all of the rest. I know people mentioned that he was paid by the word and purposefully dragged on the story, but if that’s the case then I have even more respect for Dumas, as I was enthralled the whole time.
Franz is still awesome, by the way.
