Finally starting The Count of Monte Cristo

          It has definitely been a busy week. A very busy week.

Meaning I didn't read very much,

          Sooooooo...This blog is being written after only reading, like, a few pages. Anyway, as a refresher, the book I am reading is The Count of Monte Cristo. It is about a man who becomes imprisoned for a crime he didn't do and then he goes to seek revenge on his enemies.

The book is a little more hard to understand than I had expected. I'm pretty sure that it's written in the third person. What I think makes it harder to understand is that multiple characters are being introduced all at once.

All these names and descriptions and characteristics and dialogue all being introduced at once.

In addition, it's only been 2 pages and it already is confusing. Hopefully it will all make sense soon.

I guess that sometimes multiple thoughts and information can be a good thing. It helps to give the reader a more well rounded understanding of the entire setting. At one point in the book, it talks about what the crew of the ship thinks, and then mentions what a specific character thinks. It is easier to present more information this way. At least, that is my opinion. A lot of times, I actually enjoy reading third person books. Well, this was definitely a short blog, but, there wasn't really much for me to blog about. Yet it is testing week so maybe I;ll have some time to read then.
