I didn't get as much accomplished as I had previously thought I would be able to over this month. Not sure how much I will get accomplished on my to do list for the Classic Club, but looking forward to some of the books I will get from publishers. Classes started last week and I will be reading as a stress reliever for sure!

I like most of your classics selections--the ones by Jane Austen the most. "Heart of Darkness" didn't grab me like it apparently grabs many readers--I guess everyone's a little different.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to see that I'm not the only reader who goes through occasional slumps where they feel like they're not reading as much as normal.
thank you. I haven't gotten very far on Heart of Darkness (it includes several other short stories with it), only the first short story or so. I didn't care for the short story, the writing made it a little confusing. I guess perhaps that is why I am not too enthused to actually read the book.
DeleteI just got done reading Emma today and really enjoyed it. In some ways I liked it better than Pride and Prejudice, as the characters thoughts were more known to us readers.
Great list! I love Emma and Sense and Sensibility! :-)
ReplyDeletethanks, I just finished Emma and loved it. I think the style of writing was a little better, than in Pride and Prejudice. Which Austen book is your favorite? This is only the second one I have read so far, but plan on reading the others.
DeleteWhat fun! I hope your upcoming reads are enjoyable!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I just got done with Emma this morning. Perhaps, I will start reading Jane Eyre or Hopelifters next. Are you currently reading any good books?
