Throwback Reads

I finished my first book of 2013 last night (Heft, in case you were wondering and yes, I am always a year late to the book party) and I’m ready to download the next.

For whatever reason, I managed to slip by the Bronte sisters and Jane Austen and Dickens in school and I nearly failed my Shakespeare test in AP English (I despised Macbeth!).

I plan to reread Catcher in the Rye and The Bell Jar, the most memorable high school reads I can remember, but need more classics in my life.

What are your favorites?

Wuthering Heights? Pride & Prejudice? The Count of Monte Cristo? The Great Gatsby?

  1. xoxb said: I read A Farewell to Arms by Hemmingway in Gr 11 and loved it :)
  2. theengineerswife said: I really liked Tess of the D’Urbervilles when I read it (about 12 years ago). And I just read Brave New World, and loved it. Don’t know if it counts as a classic.
  3. besttoeastcoast said: great gatsby!

About

Avatar This week I'm in Connecticut but I don’t stay put for very long. I’m a nonprofit finance professional extraordinaire, and I love to climb mountains and travel to places no one else wants to go.

I love to cook and bake and drink prosecco, and run and practice yoga. I love beautiful home interior design and a good bargain.

I have a quirky little pup named Ralphie and a fantastic, adventurous husband named Mark.
