Review: The Green Dwarf
I couldn't believe this was a Charlotte Bronte! Any Bronte, really. It was slow, there were no peaks, no valleys, no real emotion. It only took about an hour and half to read which was a blessing because it was a long hour and half. The main characters have no substance. The best part of the book happens to be the most random. There's a small bit of an invented story about Napoleon Bonaparte that is quite interesting but has nothing to do with the book. The ending is dull, the middle is dull, the beginning would be dull without Napoleon. But it's impossible to have a good story without discussing Napoleon.
