I have been reading David Copperfied by Charles Dickens. It is my mom's favourite book, so when she made me read classics, I decided to start with this one.
The book is very good in the beginning. I absolutely HATE the Murdstones. Not only because Mr.Murdstone treats David as if he were an ungrateful animal, but also because he just strides into the Copperfields' life and take control of it as if it were his to command. He completely ruin David's mother, or Mrs.Copperfield/Murdstone's happiness. I got really angry at them because they tried to make the poor mother think and act like how they want her to. And because David's mother was a little weak, she became the puppet of Mr.Murdstone and his sister. If it were only the child abuse of an evil step father, I would be less emotional. But Mr.Murdstone thought of David, and David's mother as something that he can toy with and command at his will. The poor woman doesn't even have any say in her own house! And the poor boy was helpless, and called a bad devilish boy by his own mother because his mother had no choice but to believe, follow, and do whatever those evil Murdstones told her. I LOATHE the Murstones!
