Trollope was not on my list of things to read but on a visit to a relative who is quite the fan, I thought I may as well. However, it is hard to give this book a rating as my thoughts on it slid so drastically from the first page to the last. Funnily enough a different review said the first 50 pages were great, I could not stray further from that opinion. I found the first 50 to truly drag as I could not care for any of the characters or their problems (apart from Dr Bold) . However, as the tale progressed I could understand what Trollope was slowly achieving and the characters grew as with the story. Hence, although only given three and a half stars it could have changed at any time.
Thank you to the relative for the chance, but I am unsure when I'll be revisiting Trollope if I'm honest!
