5th Reading of Great Expectations.

This reading was on my lis tone of the best so far. It was eventful and very moving.


Pip is waitng in the mean time for the signal from Whemick to send Magwitch down the river. He still refuses to spend any of the money and his debts pile up on him. He is also devestated when he finds out the marrige of Estella to Dremmil. I dont know why he would be devestated because he was never trated right by her and they werent even dating to begin with. If i was Pip i would feel sorry for the guy that ended up with the unfortunite marrage. Pip still feels bad about the way he treated Biddy. If i was Pip i would be fmore focused on trying to go after Biddy because she is someone tht he can be treated well by and he will be happy with.

Pip is invited to dinner at Jaggers. He recieves a note from Mrs Havisham. When Mr. Jaggers starts talking about the marrage of Estella Molly walks in and he realizes that she is the person he could not picture. She rezembles Estella because she is her mother. He finds it kind of hard to belive. On his way back to the Pockets house he asks his friend about Molly. He finds out that she was accused of murduring a woman and a daughter to try to hurt the husban. Pip thinks that Estella is the lost daughter. Its sounds to me that Estella was taken in by Mrs Havisham and that she was raised just like Pip was raised by hi sister. It sounds like the kind of same thing to me. Mrs. Havisham is very sorry that she made Estella break his little heart, but i think it was for the better of Pip. He doesnt need someone like that in his life right now. She beggs at his feet when he comes to visit her next time. He is at least a nice guy about it and forgives her for what she did yo him.

Mrs. Havisham catches on fire. It seems kind of strange that she would do that after what she did to Pip. Pip sees that she is swarmed in by the flames and he rushes to the rescue and trys to save her. He takes the table cloth from the feast and pounds the flames out. She lives and Pip stayes with her till the doctors leave. The next morning he leaves for London. If i was Pip i wouldve just walked away from the fire because she tried to kill her self. Pip should just leave all of the things that happened in the village and at Mrs. Havishams behind him so that he can move on the bigger and better things. He is 21 and he needs to start living his own life outside of where he came from.
