I was tempted to read this book because of a chapter I read in school. It was an excerpt from the book and was called, "Maggie Cuts Her Hair"I really enjoyed the short story and decided to read the whole book. I wish I hadn't though. The basic premise of the book is something I really really feel sick about. And it is safe to say that this is one of the rare books that I totally and completely loathe.

To paraphrase Bloom County, "Boy those Victorians were a depressed bunch."

A beautiful narration of times and lives of a wretched family.... The end will take you by surprise. The narrative takes you through the troubled lives of a Brother and Sister, who momentarily grow apart owing to moral and temperamental differences in their natures, but in the end, are untied in death and in their love for each other.

The Mill on the Flop... I found it so boring, it didn't provoke any emotion...

Not as bad as I expected but not as good as I had hoped either. I found the characters a little flat and 2 dimensional - too caricature-esque for my liking. The book also started a little slow but gained momentum after 3 or 4 chapters. Here's hoping Middlemarch fares better.

So skillfully written, and painstakingly realistic. But by being painstakingly realistic, it is also painstakingly beautiful. The characters are wonderfully developed throughout the novel, and mature in surprising and sometimes frustrating ways. Maggie is such an intriguing and mysterious character. Quite possibly one of my favorite characters that I've ever encountered in literature. This is not something I would have read on my own, but had to read it for a Victorian Literature class and absolutely fell in love with it and the author's writing! It's just really good.
