Anyone enjoy reading the classics?

I love to read pretty much anything,from novels to the back of the cereal box,as long as it sparks my interest.(And let's face it...because I get bored!) I enjoy finding books by new and upcoming authors,as well as my favorite authors.But what I am really a sucker for is the classics. I just love the smell of old books!


I would like to take the time to share a few of my favorite classics...


White Fang  by Jack London


The Pearl by John Steinbeck


Charlotte's Web by E.B. White


A Seperate Peace by John Knowles


The Neverending Story by Michael Ende


A Christmas Carol by  Charles Dickens


Old Yeller by Fred Gipson




 There are so many great authors who have left behind their legacy through writing. Not just through novels such as Dickens or Knowles,but also through poetry like Emily Dickinson and Langston Hughes.No matter how old I get or how many new authors I enjoy...I will never tire of the classics!

  1. This is a great list of classics. And the list is huge! Classics are full of pearls of wisdom, and every generation should know the main ones. A great writer is a great writer in any era.
