| The Count of Monte Cristo | Alexandre Dumas | 2025-03-18 |
After enjoying [The Three Musketeers]({{< ref "three-musketeers.md" >}}) so much a few years ago, I have been meaning to read another of Alexandre Dumas' books. I settled on The Count of Monte Cristo for its popularity though I have never seem a movie adaptation of it.
I found it good, brilliant even during all the beginning. I loved all the setting and atmosphere and the characters. The whole injustice, imprisonment, teaching and escape were incredible but I found the middle of the book quite boring and I had trouble finding the motivation to continue reading. My interest picked up near the end so I won't say it is a bad book... but it is clearly dated.
