Query: A slow read, yet interesting

Ivanhoe is a action/romance that takes place in the 12th century. It is a story of honor, chivalry, and love. I enjoyed it, but had a few complaints. First, I found it to be a little too long. Second, I thought the author, though poetic, was too discriptive. Third, It was written in old English, and I found myself re-reading some statements too understand what the author was saying. Now that I have criticized this book, I thought I would say what I enjoyed about it.1. It was full of action and suspense. 2. It had many interesting and fun characters. 3. The author was clever in how he presented the plot One final thing. I was a little suprised at the response of some younger readers. As a 13 year old, I admit I was forced into reading this for school, but now I am glad that I did. I would encourage others to give it a chance.
