Last december I made a commitment to myself to dedicate 2018 to classical literature. I started with Don Quixote and absolutely loved it. It was witty, funny, had great social commentary.

I loved how at the beginning you question a lot of the decisions the main character does and he comes off as kind of a loon. However as the story progresses I really started to believe in the illusion he had created for himself.

Both main characters were just so likable and Quixotes response and reaction to the world was just so fascinating, as he was very detached and eccentric but at the same time very well read, intelligent and most of all totally dedicated to helping people (which is a bit of fresh air, when compared to modern day misanthropic anti-heroes). To be honest the ending felt like such a betrayal after everything he and Sancho had been through.

People who've read the book. What are your opinions and favorite parts?
