I read Great Expectations back in high school, but had forgotten most of it. It was the selection for our book club, so I bought it to read again.
Although it's very long, it's a wonderful book, rich with detail and timeless for it's social issues and examination of interpersonal relationships.
I had forgotten (or perhaps didn't appreciate in high school) how funny Dickens is. His sense... more

Since a potential buyer might be wondering which edition to buy, I've decided to give a brief review of the edition instead of one of the story.
This is the 2003 reissue of the 1986 edition of the Bantam classic edition. This edition has the 1986 introduction by John Irving. It contains the Dickens classic in its intact form, with the original ending following it separately. It is 528... more

My only real complain about this bookis that Orlick seems to be an annoying intrusion. Both of the "Great Expectations" movies I saw deleted the role of Orlick, and I can't say I missed him. Along with "Oliver Twist," "Great Expectations" was one of my father's favorites.
Onto the text. Pip (who is still a child and a literary reincarnation of Oliver Twist)) has a frightening experience... more

I have to admit I have not read this yet. I saw these advertised in a magazine and just HAD to have them. I used a gift card and bought 4 or 5. They are just eye-candy on one of my tables right now...but I do want to read them. They weren't packed very well. They were just put in an oversized box, I'm lucky they didn't get messed up... more

For my pregnancy, I've consistently used two books-- this one and I'm Pregnant! by Lesley Regan.
I'll start with cons so to end on a positive note.
CONS
*It does have it's share of things that can unnecessarily worry or upset (but not as much as What to Expect). I really prefer how Regan in I'm Pregnant has a separate chapter for problems and complications-- that has been... more

This was my summer reading. Never once touched the actual book... read about the characters and the main plot and some important details in about 20 mins. When school started, we had a test on the book, results: A! I totally would suggest this book!... more

I'm just starting to read it but I'm sure the novel will fulfill my "great expectations". But I have to complain about the physical book. The pages came incredibly badly cut and the cover was thorn and damaged, as if it had been used for over a decade!
Besides, the introductory study gives a lot of details and hints about how the story is going to end and I hate that!... more
