"the human equivalent of a wet kleenex" omg that nails it so hard. excellent comparison.

What kind of over-achiever school did you go to? We read the Chrysalids and The Outsiders in eighth grade. Pretty sure both those books combined are about a third as long and a quarter as dry as Great Expectations.

idk, maybe it was my class? I'm finding out belatedly that I did a lot of things in grade school and junior high that other people didn't do until high school.

I read this in 8th grade, too. It's the only book I can remember from 8th grade because I hated it that much. Then I read Hard Times in 11th grade and A Tale of Two Cities in college and I hated them as well.

I had Tale of two Cities in 7th grade, I think. It was the school's version of gifted or whatever they call it now, "Language Arts" class. We also read The Hobbit in the same class.

I had read David Copperfield in fifth grade on my own time. I liked both, but I didn't follow the plot of ToTC very well. The first three chapters confused me but I picked it up after that and was doing fine by the end.

I didn't like Great Expectations either :)
