6 posts | 8 read | 1 reading | 6 to read
"Great Expectations "has it all: romance, mystery, comedy, and unforgettable characters woven through a gripping rags-to-riches tale. NaIve Pip, creepy Miss Haversham, beautifully cold Estella, terrifying Abel Magwitch, and the rest of Dicken's fantastic cast are perfectly envisioned in this new adaptation in this 300-plus page volume featuring artwork by artist Nokman Poon. "Manga Classics" editions feature classic stories, faithfully adapted and illustrated in manga style, and available in both hardcover and softcover editions. Proudly presented by UDON Entertainment and Morpheus Publishing.

Although I haven't read the original, I absolutely loved reading this one. The plot and the story is great and the characters are so interesting. I was hooked from the very start. The gorgeous illustrations made the story come alive. Also I love how fast you can read it.
5/5

Thank you #UdonEntertainment and #NetGalley for the ARC.

Finished January 28, 2018

Very detailed drawings and true to the classic story. However, it seemed to me that in certain places the story became a bit watered down, without all the impact of the original

Manga is a great, condensed and fun way to read boring, long-winded complex classics. The story literally came to life with the illustrated pictures👍

I spent a few hours sleeping and then woke up to finish one more book for #readathon! This was another great graphic novel adaptation of a classic novel. The story is clearly summed up and the art is wonderful.

I generally struggle with classics however I enjoyed this one and got really into it. It's is long and the language is a struggle at times but as far as classics go it's one I'd recommend. This is the life of Pip and his great expectations of life and all in all it's a throughly enjoyable read.

I remembered the beginning of this book when I had to read it in high school. As I mentioned I had to read it, so I didn't actually read through it all in high school. I found the Manga Classics version of Great Expectations to be a super quick and fun way to read Great Expectations. Now I want to read the original version.
