Overall I thought this book was okay. I think it was partly the style of writing that got me, but that could be just because it was a translation. I know it's not because it's a classic because there are many other classics that I love.
I did love many parts of the book and laughed out loud on several parts, but overall it was just alright for me. I will still always remember, though, the scene where Sancho used the bathroom off the side of his donkey (very quietly so Don Quixote wouldn't hear) and then Don Quixote moving away because of the smell. Absolutely loved that part! Had me laughing my butt off.
