Is "A Tale of Two Cities" good? I've heard a lot about it. I have a lot of books I'm planning to read, but I wouldn't mind a few more  .

Well, I haven't finished it yet, but I can already say it's not my favourite Dickens novel (that would be
Our Mutual Friend or
Bleak House). However, it has at least one great character: Madame Defarge who's always observing others while ostensively knitting and "seeing nothing".
Vernon God Little was a very odd book, but I enjoyed reading it anyway.
Nineteen-Eighty-Four is disturbing but brilliant. Much better than the film. [/b][/quote]
Yes she was very cool,
She would watch them and if they acted against the people in any way, then she would knit the offending person's name in code into her scarf or blanket or whatever it was she was knitting.
Then when tehy started Guillotining people she would read out the names from her scarf.
Very sinister character...
Very cool
