Favorite Things About My Book
I liked that in the end of the book, every thing turned out to be alright. I also liked how he ruthlessly abused his money, it seemed to illustrate you far one might go to achieve vengeance, and also how when you fantasize about it you lose the other parts of your life that are so precious. Finally, i liked the plot progression. It didn't take forever to get to the main plot or the meat of the story.

It's true that vengeance is a satisfying, convenient mental escape. But I'm still confused- how can everything turn out all right if he's deformed by the drive for revenge?
The _thought_ of vengeance is satisfying. And along the way he sort of regains himself. He might not be an innocent, but he's Emond Dantes again, not the Count of Monte Cristo. Also I just found out what Monte Cristo means. I think it's, 'Mountain of Christ' in french.
well, the italics thing doesn't work on comments here
