Title: Dreadful
Review: I'm not sure what makes this book a classic, other than the fact that it is old. It is a long difficult slog through florid prose, to find a story that has little, if any, plot. Nothing really happens throughout the entire book.This book could have been written in one sentence: "Once upon a time, there were some people that I didn't really like, that lived around here, in a house that may or may not have been haunted, and after nothing much happened to them, they moved away.The rest of the book is nothing but long-winded, overblown descriptions that make you feel like YOU are mouldering and decaying, rather than the house. There are many classics out there that inform, entertain and uplift the human spirit. This is not one of them. I hate every excruciating second of it.And no, I wasn't forced to read this for a class, I read it of my own accord, much to my dismay.
