Great Expectations Fulfilled

Date of Review:  Nov 21, 2002
The Bottom Line: The first classic you should read- and, if you've read others, a competitor for the best classic you will read.
Review: Charles Dickens' classic novel is the best book he wrote. The main character Pip is the son of a working-class family who forgets his roots in his attempt to become successful - and when he falls in love with Estella - the "rich" girl the jilted...

I HAD Great Expectations for this book!

Date of Review:  Jan 28, 2001
The Bottom Line: Prepare to be lost!!!
Review: I guess when you are in school and is forced to read a book it always seems to be bad. I can say about two of the three times I read a book in school, it is like a punishment to read those endless sentences. It's like each word is translated to be...

This is what they mean by a "Great Book"

Date of Review:  Feb 27, 2000
Review: I chose to write a review of Great Expectations because I wanted to be able to rate a novel "five-stars" without an ounce of hesitation.

Context: I'm not by any means some sort of an intellect. Like many people who have read Great...

Great expectations, big disappointment.

Date of Review:  Sep 25, 2000
Review: I had to read this book for A' Level English Lit. Before going into detail about the book, I must explain a few things about Dickens, the man. Firstly, Dickens' father was imprisoned in one of the many Debtor's prisons for non-payment. This had a...

Maybe the Best Novel Ever Written

Date of Review:  Feb 5, 2001
The Bottom Line: Great Expectations is excellent. Delve into the strange world of Pip, and enjoy yourself.
Review: The first time I read Great Expectations I was in 8th grade, and it had a lasting impression on me -- I thought it was one of the best books I'd ever read. I'm now a freshman in college, and on my second reading I loved it even more than I did the...

Great...The Exact title for this book!

Date of Review:  Oct 15, 2000
Review: I really enjoyed this book. Any self-indulgent, greedy, or power obsessed person, should own a copy. I guess this book teaches a lot of things, but you would have to know the plot line to really understand such as:

Dickens considered Great...

Careers in Great Expectations

Date of Review:  May 24, 2000
Review: Careers affect a person?s moral development because they require so much of one?s time and effort. People without careers are aimless and often fill the void in their life through immoral means. Morality is vital to mankind because when immorality...
