Hello! Today I have a review of The Mayor of Casterbridge by Thomas Hardy for you all. Before you click away, screaming and shrieking in the faces of spoilers - it's OK, you can relax because this is a spoiler free review.
As part of Lucy Powrie's (@lucythereader on Instagram and YouTube ), Classicsathon challenge for the month of August, I challenged myself to read this book and three others. This was one that I was taking forever to read, so I decided August was the best month to read it in for no other reason than I wanted to and I was slightly sick of it sitting on my bedside locker, collecting dust. I finished this book at the start of the month so, without further ado, let's get into the review so this post can also stop gathering dust and finally be uploaded!
