I’m keeping with my goal last year; One Classic per Month (on average)… at least as best I can.

Made 10/12 last year and was super proud of myself as a couple were pretty big and dense but, more than that, I was astounded by how many amazing Classics there are that I’ve never touched but absolutely loved!

Successes for last year: ‘The Count of Monte Cristo’ ‘Don Quixote’ ‘Great Expectations’ ‘Phantom of the Opera’ ‘A Christmas Carol and Other Christmas Writings’ ‘Wuthering Heights’ ‘Frankenstein’ ‘The Iliad’ ‘Pride and Prejudice’ ‘The Fellowship of the Ring’

Finishing ‘Peter and Wendy’ very soon (easy short read) then jumping back to Tolkien for ‘The Two Towers’. Definitely going to jump back to Homer for ‘The Odyssey’ sooner than later. I was a huge fan of ‘The Iliad’ so I’m stoked to keep going.

Don’t sleep on the Classics, you guys. I can’t believe how many amazing stories there are out there :)
