“The Three Musketeers” by Alexandre Dumas, Pere

So, I finally read this classic. Overall,it was quite enjoyable. Dumas has written some quite beautiful descriptive passages, and the various incidents in the book are quite amusing. On the other hand, I must admit that afte4 awhile, I found the adventures to be rather repetitive. And I skimmed over much of Milady’s machinations near the end of the book.

As often happens with the classics, I was surprised by how modern it felt. Dumas has a good sense of humour. Also, I very much liked the collaborative decision making style among the Musketeers.
