Finishing Great Expectations

It's FINALLY over. Well, it wasn't quite that bad, but it was a struggle to get through at times. I enjoyed the main character Pip, he just seemed to rub off in a way. I wasn't to fond of the other characters, because of the fact that they were quite boring, except Estella, who never failed to excite. Some parts of the book were interesting but most were horrible... in my opinion. Some parts of the book were predictable for me, like the fact that Magwitch was the benefactor. For some reason I thought that was true.

I ended up making it through the entire book. It seemed I found myself reading late at night, because that seemed to be the only free time I had between baseball and all my other homework. Sometimes I even found myself reading between commercials while watching SportsCenter. Although my reading habbits might not have been the best, I seemed to understand the book pretty well. The last reading I had to do I ended up reading 40 pages because of my inability to understand the little yellow sheet... but besides that everything went well.
