There are so many plot twists in this book that I never saw coming. It literally made for such a fantastic adventure story, a revenge story, one of the best ones, if not the best one that I've ever read.
where to start with classic literature (based on your favorite genres)
It's just so Oh my god, it's so mind-boggling. It's so incredible. It's one of the best pieces of literature that I've ever had the honor of reading.
It really taught me how timeless a classic can be and how something that was written over 200 years ago can still be so prevalent and so relatable and how it can literally just change the way that you view life and the way that you think about certain things. It can literally shape your perspective. And that's what Frankenstein taught me.
Like I just adored reading a book that has such a headstrong female character and it was just so beautiful to read from her perspective.
I read it during my own time. Nobody was going to quiz me on this and I deeply enjoyed this. I had such an interesting time reading this because our main character is so emotionally detached from his own life.
Meditations. That one was a good one as well.
But it is done in such a way that feels so concise, it makes sense. Everything just flows so naturally and even though it's dark and negative and cynical, there are times where I was deeply relating to this stuff.
The banter is not stiff. It's really funny and relatable and you're like gripping your pearls at times and it's just so inviting. It's just so fun to read Pride and Prejudice.
It's a very disorienting read, but it is so brilliantly done. The writing, chef's kiss, honestly, it's one of the most beautiful writings that I've ever encountered in my life as a reader. And it's just a very immersive reading experience.
Turned out to be a five-st star. Turned out to be one of the hardest cries that I had that year. Ever since then, I've just been recommending it to everybody that will listen.
This is a very heartbreaking and dark book. There's a lot of existential crisis and depersonalization. Esther just goes through a lot and it's very emotional and raw.
It's very easy to read. It's very fun to read. Whenever you put this book down, you're going to be looking forward to whenever you can pick it back up again.
If you love watching characters destroy themselves beautifully, I think you're going to love this because it's also short. It's so impactful. It's sharp and witty and disastrous and dark and twisted at times, but it is so beautiful.
I read this after I read the unabbridged journals of Sylvia Pla, so I could definitely see all of the similarities between Sylvia Pla's life and Esther's life. And the fact that both of these women had such hard lives and that they had to go through so such hard experiences, it was just heartbreaking.
But when you finally click with the story, when you finally click with the characters, it's an incredible reading experience. Virginia Wolf's stories, especially The Waves, is very lyrical and moving and emotional.
