3.0

For the first section of the book (through Edmond's escape and treasure), I really liked the pacing and writing. However, after that point the structure of storytelling changed into introducing a brand new character, focusing on them for a few chapters, and only later finding out their relevance, which I didn't like. Also, the side plot with Valentine and Maximillion felt like a completely separate book, so it made the pacing worse because it was such a departure from the revenge main storyline. I was also a bit disappointed and let down by Danglars because at the beginning he seemed so intelligent and clever that I thought he would pose as more of an obstacle, but he ended up basically being the Count of Monte Cristo's bitch. I HATE that Edmond ended up with

Haydee; it is so creepy (she's his slave, described like a daughter to him, etc.)

The first half of the imprisonment is so strong. What happened to the rest? It falls off and becomes a slog.
