From the review of "Great Expectations:"
Why do I come here to "review" this? It isn't anyone's book club selection, no. But tonight I want to talk about this incomparably rich and wonderful book, and how as a fourteen year old kid I simply sank into it, taking it slowly week by week, glorying in its mysteries, its great grotesque portrait of Miss Havisham in her rotting bridal finery, its often painful recounting of a young boy's awakening to a seductive world beyond the blacksmith's forge to which destiny has condemned him. This book was about me.
Dude, all her reviews - excuse me, "reviews" - are just "It's all about MEEEEEEE," only with LOTS and LOTS of words.
Ow.
