Anonymous asked

Who do you consider as some of the greatest classical authors? And which classical books do you find really great? Because I'm really considering reading The Classics for a change, also because I think that to be a true bookworm, you have to have quite a good foundation on the classics, right? :)

This is really hard! I did a list a while back of choices for ‘your first classic’ of books that aren’t too hard to get into. I personally really like Jane Eyre and Jane Austen. I also think Catcher in the Rye and The Great Gatsby are good places to start. But I definitely think you can be a true bookworm without having read classics! You’re already there.

Day 2: Least Favourite Books

Some of my least favourites I had to read for school, so that might be why I disliked them so much. I had to read The Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan for Children’s Lit, and I barely finished it.
I read Breaking Dawn on my own time, and I couldn’t stand it. I’m not going to go to into it, since a lot of what I think has been said a million times, but if vampires do not age at all and humans age at a normal rate, why would a half vampire/half human age so quickly? Am I just being dense and missing something?
Anyways, those are two books I will never reread.
