 I'm not enjoying this book. It was probably far better in smaller chunks as it was released! I'm not a fan, sorry Mary!

 Enjoyable. Can't quite stand the preachy prose.

 I'm not going to try and rate this yet. After finishing it I think it's something I want to try later on. I think it's a good book, and the writing style is intelligent, though I thought the plot's pace was a tad sporatic. I did enjoy many of Eliot's characters however and think I will love this book even more in the future.

 My all-time favourite book. It's wise, funny and deeply insightful about human behaviour, both good and bad. I re-read it every two years or so and always find something new.

 There's a reason they're called classics. And it's not because they're old.

 I can't believe I actually got through this book. Two months of hard slog, never found it so hard not to give up on a book. Altough the general story was enjoyable in parts the sheer longwindedness of every single chapter left me fighting to finish. It does get easier/better once you have gotten through the first 200 pages or so, but to no great degree. When compared to other 'classics' I have read Middlemarch is sadly lacking. Very dissapointing.
