Who else has read The Count of Monte Cristo, by Alexandre Dumas (also the author of the Three Musketeers)? I'm only about 70 pages in. It is a Victorian Era book taking place in 1815(-16?) right after the downfall of Napoleon, in France. It is a romantic mystery, I think. Considering the fact that it was written in 1845(?) in France with sophistocated language makes it more difficult to read than other books.

Yeah, I think I may have read this back in middle school. Maybe 5th or 6th grade? I've got bad recall
