One of the biggest yawn-fests I used to loathe every grade once it was assigned was Great Expectations. I regarded those years I wasn't required to read it as a treat in which I didn't have to dig up an old report for some spit and shine. It boggles my mind why I've seen it as #1 on so many top Dickens lists while individually I see Bleak House and David Copperfield recommended more often. Maybe it's just that lists sucks.

To this day I don't know if it's as bad as my younger self thought, but I get a feeling of dread whenever my fingers pass over its spine. Teaching kids to love books by repeatedly bludgeoning them over the head with the same classic time after time seems counterproductive to me. Go America.
