all things fiction

The last time I read Great Expectations was in primary school. My father got me the revised version so I could understand it a little bit.

Since it was long ago, I didn't remember what the story was except that I enjoyed it. It left me feeling good then. I think because of the Estelle character. 

I picked it up again yesterday and I've been in hysterical mirth 😂

I'm also using it to improve my vocabulary.

It must have been painful losing all your books. Sorry about that 😪

Yeahh reading it as an ebook makes it easy. It might take some time to finish but what matters is that I get it. 😅

I recall getting halfway through 10 or so years ago, then I lost my e-book reader, switched to Kindle, and lost all my books. Never picked up GE again.

Reading books of they era as ebooks does make it a lot easier. You can just double tap any word to see what it means.

I remember taking longer than I would have to read it too 😂😂
It was too advanced for us. 

I think you mean the convict. I'm in chapter 8. Where Pip goes to Miss Havisham's. I don't know if they give a name to the convict yet.

i read Great Expectations in primary school too. but it was the original version. 

i took it from a cousin's house then. i had headcahes after every chapter because it was too much for me. lol. especially Dickens' use of 'die' as 'the'. 

it took me a while to finish it but i did. i loved how it went in a totally different direction that we imagined. 😂

the thief has to be my favorite character. i don't remember his name anymore.
