Robinson Crusoe

So the Amazon Classics version is definitely the complete Robinson Crusoe narrative. If you’ve ever wanted to listen/read (Kindle/Audible) and you have prime you can get it for free, so that’s good right??

I would say RC #1 was enjoyable and I liked reading his survival. 3.5/4*s 

Then I would say the Further Adventures of Robinson Crusoe or RC #2 was mainly about this dude having an issue with sitting home and being practically rich?? And then an absolute ton of information about a French priest and “savage” wives? 
It was insufferable. 1.5/2*s

Best to avoid the second, you’re all welcome...

Really, really flat-out bad.
It's unfortunate that this is one of the oldest surviving English stories. The protagonist has little to no redeeming qualities, had survival handed to him on a silver platter - he had a servant and all the shipwreck's supplies, for god's sake - and more than half the book is a tedious pro/con list about what he should and should not do. 
There's next to no emphasis on plot, and the whole book is just plain and preachy, with next to no actual emotion in it. The only thing shown in this book are Robinson's piety, luck and racism. I know we shouldn't look at ild books using modern morals, but classics are classics because they stood the test of time. This book, safe to say, is gradually failing the test of time and I can't say I'm disappointed about it. 
I would overlook the colonial overtones if there was anything else in the story to look at, but honestly? I hate this book more than I hate A Court Of Thorns And Roses.

It was a fun read, well written, easy and short. Just what I needed.

This tale of a marooned sailor is one known by name to almost all individuals. His story was the basis of almost all subsequent shipwreck survivor stories, so it's safe to say I had relatively high expectations going in. However, I must say that although the story was indeed adventurous and fast-paced, I didn't particularly resonate with Crusoe's voice throughout the narrative. It seemed a bit shallow given his dire circumstances. I enjoyed the process of the story nonetheless, and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a little adventure! It's easy to see why so many adaptations of Crusoe's story have been made! I give it 3.5 stars, my highest rating possible usually being 4.5 stars.
