Summary: Great Expectations a good book
Review: By reading this book I learned a lot about different situations. It was a good book I thought It was fun and easy to read, in the sense it was an easy reading book. It was a bout a young boy named Pip. It told his adventures throught out his life. He lived poorely with his sister and worked with a frind named Joe.I guess the book was called great expectations for a reason, it was about a boy who wanted more out of life that just what he had already had. One day he was told that some body wanted to become his benificier and support him with all his needs. Some body had wanted to bless him with his riches and make a true gentleman out of him. His first job though was to leave his home and everything he knew and to move to London. There he learned how to shop and dress like a real gentleman would. In doing this, he was very successful.He lived there for many years never to know who his benificier was. He never had much family and the he had to see the family he did have die over the years before he had much of a chance to contact them. He never did get married and he lived a long life without love. eventully he found out who his benifcier was, when he showed up on Pip's dorestep one night to reveal who he was supported by all those years. i would tell you the end, but i don't want to give it away. I thought it was a good book because I neve r read these kind of books, but this one kept my intrest and was not boaring. I would recomend this book to just about anyone. It was deffinently worth reading.
