I’ll be honest, I don’t usually read manga. However, it was part of a reading challenge and this one was “read now” on NetGalley so I decided to give it a try. 

The Count of Monte Cristo is a classic that I remember enjoying in the past and having it retold with these fantastic illustrations was great. The story was covered well and told in a way that holds the attention more than a classic writing style. So if you want to read the classics but can’t handle the style of the classics, give the manga versions a try! They’re solid!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ because it is a pain to read manga as an ebook since they start at the end - the app kept marking it as “complete” because I started at the typical end.
