The Virgin and the Gipsy (Great Loves, #14)

My first DH Lawrence book. I'll admit I'm not quite used to classic writing, so getting through this was a bit hard for me. Not to mention feeling like the storytelling was slow and that it was hard to relate to any of the characters. However, I read the reviews, and found that Lawrence is known for describing very well the human psyche, behaviour and sexual attraction. Which makes the book make much more sense, and helps me to appreciate it better. Because a lot of this book follows Yvette's thoughts and feelings, while illustrating very well her family and other individuals she encounters.
So... I didn't love this, but I appreciate it for what it is. Having said that, I'm gonna start including more classics into my reading list again! (and not just read them for Lit exam purposes hahahah)
