One of my favorite classics. I thought this would be a slow read, but I had a hard time putting it down.
cancel culture has always been a thing! surprisingly enjoyable to read. maybe just because iâve read a little hawthorne before or maybe because iâve been reading a lot recently, but i didnât find the style too bad/hard to read!
unfortunately there are some racist descriptions of native americans, though i canât be surprised due to the time period, and theyâre fairly limited

I read this as a sophomore or junior in hs and struggled with it. It thought is wasnât that bright and reading wasnât my thing. I believe this book is my 100th book Iâve read this year and I can say, I was very wrong. This book is brutal. Itâs dull. Its writing is as of 2024 incredibly challenging to read and comprehend. Many times did I find my mind wandered out of boredom much like when I read this in HS. Why do we make kids read this? I donât mind the story of adultery, Iâm all for books, but this thing is just horrible to impart on kids as it dissuades them from appreciating reading.
