One of my favorites. I love each character for who they are and how they came to be. I am not a huge Dickens fan, but Great Expectations gets me in the feels

It’s my favorite classic so far in my 42 years on this planet. A book I have read multiple times.

I read it so very long ago; I only remember that it took me years to tackle another Dickens book.

I had to smile, as that is what happened to me, although I did enjoy it.

I enjoyed it too; but, it demanded a substantial intellectual & personal investment. At the time I was too young to understand such investment are what defines quality literature.

This is very true. I’ve been trying to read it lately but doing so at bedtime which has not been successful. Changing to a daytime only read

It’s a great piece of writing, Miss Haversham is particularly well imagined I thought. My favourite Dickens is Bleak House, which is even better, with a bit of spontaneous human combustion included free. ?

Really enjoy it – a strange book, but surely one of Dickens’ best.
