I hate it you hype something up and end up ruining it a little.Lindsey Sparkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03654365166738983077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4873172796061848002.post-79040018368290393012012-08-07T19:52:40.044-05:002012-08-07T19:52:40.044-05:00She did get frustrating as time went on.

It's a hard book to talk about with sharing spoilers!Lindsey Sparkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03654365166738983077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4873172796061848002.post-81027311741247174432012-08-07T09:35:30.559-05:002012-08-07T09:35:30.559-05:00George Eliot is definitely one of my favorite writ...George Eliot is definitely one of my favorite writers and while I agree that her characters in Mill on the Floss are compelling, I felt a bit disappointed in the book, probably because I had hyped it in my mind so much.<br /><br />My favorite scene is when Maggie runs away to the gypsies.<br /><br />Glad you enjoyed the book--I agree, the end is enthralling.JaneGShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11094501834387622997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4873172796061848002.post-11568152375698593402012-08-06T20:02:49.911-05:002012-08-06T20:02:49.911-05:00I really enjoyed The Mill on the Floss and I was s...I really enjoyed The Mill on the Floss and I was surprised by the ending. I was a bit annoyed with Maggie, she seemed to lose some of her spunk she had as a young girl, but the world was unduly harsh towards her....
