If I had to describe this book in one word, it would be "apathetic."
The main Character seem to be completely indifferent almost everything for the great majority of the book. It seems like he only really feels anything at the very end.
Therefore, I was completely indifferent for the entire book. I was constantly waiting for a direction that the story was going, but never really found one. It definitely did not provoke any insightful thinking for me.
Hopefully I like Life of Pi more...

1 Book down!
I finally finished my first book from my list! I would like to thank my wife Amanda, the only one who hasn't mocked me for either the list I have chosen or my aspirations to finish it.
I promised to give my feedback for the books I read, so here it goes:
I really liked this book. I think this book captured the good and evil capabilities within both sides of the French Revolution. This is also a great story of repentance and redemption.
I also liked Charles Dickens' writing style. He is great at using literary devices to demonstrate his points.
You should read it.
My favourite quote-
Troubled as the future was, it was the unknown future, and in its obscurity there was ignorant hope.
