I picked my final #LitsyClassic book up and suspect i wouldn't have put it down again but i had to post this extract - I'm not sure that we have been waiting to be interviewed by a nazi interrogator but i have certainly noticed people with books and desperately wanted to know what they are reading.

Savedbygrace What a good idea! Congrats! Think I will have to borrow this list :) 5y
Kaye Wow, good for you ! Completed right on schedule. Did you have a favorite from the list ? 5y
TheBookHippie @kaye WAR AND PEACE!!! But many of them were so wonderful. This was lyrically beautiful 5y
TheBookHippie @kaye also this was so intriguing 5y
Kaye You certainly chose a wide variety of favorites. That‘s the great thing about books. You can travel to different times and places without leaving your chair. War and Peace is a whopper, isn‘t it ? Maybe one of these dats I‘ll try to tackle it. Are you going to do this again this coming year ? 5y
TheBookHippie @kaye war and peace: I read 27 pages a day starting January first last year. It was the perfect way. I ended on Valentines Day. I'm doing my own #childrensclassicread2019 and am going to research more classical literature to read. 5y
Kaye Good idea to split up such a big book a bit each day. It‘ll be interesting to see what books you choose for the coming year. 😊 5y

Spending some time reading this book! I must say, I didn‘t expect to like this book as I much as I do. There‘s plenty of action and adventure that keeps me turning the page! 😊. #litsyclassic#currentlyreading#robinhood

Another awesome book haul!!! I can‘t wait until I start gone with the wind!!!!! #bookhaul#litsyclassic

Rachbb3 I read it last year and it became one of my favorite books. A little different from the movie in some aspects. 6y
BrieT2016 I figured as much since most books are different from the movie. It‘ll be my next read after the Red Queen. 6y

I missed a few days but here is todays #LitsyClassic photo challenge prompt - #cover I love the cover to this book. I want to collect the entire collection like this. It would look absolutely beautiful on a shelf all together wouldn‘t it?? Doesn‘t anyone have the entire collection and want to share a picture of it? If so, tag me pretty please! ❤️❤️📚😘

The Bell Jar | Sylvia Plath

Wow. I had somehow anticipated i wouldn't like this classic, but on the contrary i am utterly in awe and love with Silvia Plath's description both depression and opression. Striking how little has changed since the 60s, contracaption and all... #imwithher #uterusesbeforeduderuses #litsyclassic

starlight97 I felt the same about this book :) 6y
Buechersuechtling Oh, das habe ich auch noch (auf Deutsch) hier liegen. In einer schönen Ausgabe mit blauen Buchschnitt. Ich bin sehr gespannt darauf, scheue mich aber – wahrscheinlich aus dem gleichen Grund wie du – davor, es zu beginnen. Außerdem ist mein Leben gerade anstrengend genug, deswegen weiß ich nicht, ob das zu diesem Zeitpunkt tatsächlich die richtige Lektüre ist. 6y
Heideschrampf @Buechersuechtling ja, das verstehe ich. Aber als jemand, der selbst mit der psyche zu kämpfen hat tat es gut so viel verständniss zu finden, und das auch noch ohne das ganze warum/weshalb/woher zu zerkleinern. Dazu ist es auch noch ziemlich poetisch geschrieben, also vom stil sehr angenehm und eher ironisch als deprimierend 6y

LazyDays @kspenmoll @Jess7 how does a buddy read work? Because I am interested in the tagged book for March.😊✌ 6y
Jess7 Whenever you post about the tagged book you use our hashtag #LitsyBuddyRead. Then you follow the suggested reading schedule post on our @LitsyBuddyRead page. It‘s ok if you read a little ahead or fall a little behind. We will start posting open discussion pages for each week‘s chapters next week, and then there will be a final discussion on March 25th. Let me know if you want to be added to the list to tag for discussions. 6y
kspenmoll @Jess7 thanks for responding to @LazyDays ! Please join us- There has been so much for me to gain in discussing #LitsyBuddyRead books with fellow Littens. @Jess7 & @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks are wonderful hosts with thought provoking questions. ❤️📚 6y
