Great Expectations is a timeless exploration of ambition, society, and personal growth. What I love most about this book is how it forces you to reflect on your own values.

Pip’s journey, as he gets caught up in wealth and social status, holds up a mirror to our own lives, making us question what really matters.

The characters in this novel are rich and unforgettable—especially Miss Havisham with her haunting presence, and Joe, whose simplicity reveals a beautifully complex form of love that I think we should all aspire to.

It’s Joe’s character that gives this story its heart, reminding us that true wealth has nothing to do with money or status.
