I've read A Christmas Carol many, many times. It's an easy Christmas reread, and again, it's very short. It's very beautiful.
ONE book you could read FOREVER (according to readers)
And Then There Were None probably is Agatha Christiey's masterpiece. Although my personal favorite is Crooked House.
Although my personal favorite is Crooked House.
Five Little Pigs, Five Little Pigs doesn't get enough love. I really like that one.
I love Frankenstein with all my heart and I always will. Frankenstein is my favorite book and it is also the one book I could reread over and over again.
I've read the Julia Levelvel version. That translation really is amazing.
It's a book that I really, really enjoyed, but have so many, well, just one really massive and important criticism of in that it is such aing white male savior hero complex projection of the author's savior power fantasy. It's all so transparent.
Now, I read The Book Thief once. I watched the film immediately after and I thought, "Yeah, that was good." Yeah. Yeah. I enjoyed it.
It is a book that does not patronize children. It's a book that introduces complex themes of religious hypocrisy and the poisons of doctrine and dogma. It does all of that in a way that is so respectful of the intelligence of the reader knowing that the people who read this book are going to be around the age of 12, 13, 14.
And I've read The Hobbit two, maybe three times. Once at school, once as an adult. Yeah, it's good. Yeah, I like it. It's fun.
I have not read the third book of dust, which came out recently because in the second book of Dust, Philip Pullman really grossed me out. I thought he had turned into a creepy old man, and that was emphasized by some of the writing and character choices in that book.
There's no reason to be this way, but I am such a Weathering Heights stan that I do kind of look at Jire with a bit of disdain. I'm like, but We Wthering Heights though.
