This Week’s Topic: Top Ten Favourite Classics/Classics that I want to read
Top 5 Classics that I want to read:
1. Dracula
I’ve always wanted to read this…the library has it on audio, so I’ll definitely be listening to it soon.
2. Pride and Prejudice
Another one that I’ve always wanted to read. I want to read pretty much any Jane Austen, really.
3. A Tale of Two Cities
I’ll be honest, one of the main reasons I want to read this is because of The Infernal Devices trilogy (by Cassandra Clare). Also, because it’s Charles Dickens.
4. Wuthering Heights
I started reading this once…it was a few years ago and I gave up after, like, 3 pages. I’ve been wanting to give it another go ever since.
5. The Illiad/The Odyssey
Ever since reading Percy Jackson, I’ve wanted to read the original myths. Where better to start?
Top 5 Favourite Classic books:
1. Anne of Green Gables
Read this when I was younger, absolutely loved it.
2. The Importance of Being Ernest
I had to read this one for school, but I loved it. It was absolutely hilarious.
3. Frankenstein
This was one that I wanted to have to read for school, but we did another book instead. I read it anyway and did enjoy it.
4. The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde
I’d been wanting to read this for ages, and I finally got around to it a couple of weeks ago. It was weird, strange and the ending was a little abrupt, but it was still good.
5. Jane Eyre
Yet another book that I had to read for school, but still good.
