Er...I covered a brim?

In my defense, I've been re-reading The Count of Monte Cristo nights this week (I like to read a bit before bed), and last night I got to the very exciting part, stayed up far too late, and just HAD to finish the whole thing this afternoon instead of being dedicated and sewing things like I ought. Besides it being fun to see all the horrible people get exactly what they deserve (and then some), I love any historical novel that gives a nod to what its characters are wearing, and is also kind enough to tell me the precise date, so I can enjoy mentally costuming everyone! (I didn't remember the clothing descriptions from last time I read it...I think I know a good deal more about the 1830s now, which helped!)

Definitely a good book and well worth multiple rereads.

I LOVE that book! As well as the Musketeer books. I reread it every few years just because I need to. :-)
