Oh my god, I LOVED this book.
I've had this book for a long time but until yesterday I didn't read it beyond the part where Phillip was made fun at his school, because I thought it wasn't that enjoyable. How incredibly wrong I was!
This book was simply beautiful in its portrayal of Phillips' struggle through life and love, as well as the portrayal of many minor characters that had affected Phillip. The book really enabled me to sympathize with characters such as the hopeless and destitute artist Fanny Price, generous Athelny and even the old Dr. South, even though I have never really experienced anything similar to their hardships. Every chracter, including Mildred seemed so realistic and different.
