*RE-READ* Lordt. I don‘t know. I remember liking this as a kid. I may have read a condensed/abridged version. I think that is the way to read this. Christian bounces, leaving his wife & kids, to go on a pilgrimage. This was just such a slog. I just hate the massive repression of British literature. Part 2, Christiana‘s part, was unnecessary. I dunno. I just felt bogged down reading this. Another re-read off The List, I guess. 216/1,001 #1001Books

I just saw the 1970‘s version of the film. And it was super trippy. I wonder what would have happened to me if I had watched it as a kid. And this was Liam Nesson‘s first film. It was interesting watching him portray the Good Shepard.

On the right is the shelf with most of my #prettyBooks. Left shows details of four, counterclockwise from top left: Pilgrim‘s Progress, Candide, Collected Sonnets of Edna St. Vincent-Milay, and Pride and Prejudice. Like @Leftcoastzen I pick them up at library sales and secondhand shops. #30JuneBooks @howjessreads

#alliterativetitles #marchintoreading

Not too many of my books had alliteration in their titles, but I found six! Of course, Pride and Prejudice, again, works for a photo challenge! ☺️

ValerieAndBooks You tricked me for a moment there and I was wondering if "Beautiful Books!" was good ? 6y
CrowCAH @ValerieAndBooks yup, did it on purpose! ☺ 6y
Branwen Nice stack! Alliteration is so great, isn't it? :-) I'm about to start a reread if The Great Gatsby! 6y
CrowCAH @Branwen I lavishly love the layered stack of lush books laying on the stairs! Lol Surprisingly, The Great Gatsby was not required reading for me, but after seeing the new movie I read the book and enjoyed it! 6y
Branwen @CrowCAH Really?! It wasn't required reading for you?! I remember having to read it in high school and not really caring for it too much. But after reading it a few years later I completely fell in love with it. I'm really looking forward to diving into it again! :-) 6y
