Would I recommend this book for...
Teenagers?No
Adults?Yes

Comments: This classic might be a study in behavior etc. but it is sad and corrupt. I did not even feel like it was that entertaining. It was very well written as far as pro's and I loved the historical information. However I felt like it was a waste of time, maybe because it was a bit too realistic in its exploration of human beings which isn't exactly why I read FICTION! If I wanted to read this kind of story I would buy STAR magazine, right?
