Sometimes I really love his books. for example, A Tale of Two Cities.

Especially because I have tried to read Doniote in the past, but I have tried to read it in Spanish, which is its original language, and I hated it. I utterly detested my experience trying to read Doniote, and that's why I've been putting it off for so long.

And that seems to be the case with a lot of people because his writing can be very dense. It can be very slow and very packed. I've definitely felt that especially with maybe I want to say Great Expectations, which is ironic because that's the one that I wanted to read the most before I had read any Charles Dickens in my life.
So I read Layiz last year and I really love Victor Hugo's writing. I love how he builds these characters to feel so well human obviously, but they just feel so genuine and so relatable and they feel like people that you can love and they feel like people that you may even know and relate to on a deep and personal level.
So yeah, definitely prioritizing Remnants of Filth because it just sounds like I remember I had so much fun with the first volume and I know that the second one is going to be just as fun or maybe even better.
I bought myself a copy of The Iliad after having read the Odyssey and loving it, loving every single second.
