The Scarlet Letter

The Scarlet Letter

By: Nathaniel Hawthorne
Reviewed by: awesomeVia, 17
Rating: Really liked it



This is a common book read in twelfth grade English classes. I thought I wouldn't like it but turned out, I did. I love the tension between Arthur Dimmesdale and Hester. I love how Hawthorne portrays Hester as a strong woman and how the scarlet letter in turn makes her stronger.

I found the diction in the novel confusing at times but the overall story is still good. The ending is kinda sad though.
