@BookmarkTavern

Since producing two AP Literature surveys for #ThreeListThursday, I am reminded of how many classics I still want to read. Two big authors would be to read all of Shakespeare's plays and all of Dickens. I'm really enjoying the #WhatTheDickens buddy read.
Here's a link to ALL AP books on the AP Lit exam from 1970-2024 if interested:

DrSabrinaMoldenReads Thanks for this list! 10h
julieclair My goodness yes! Soooo many still to read. Thanks for the link. I, too, want to read/reread Shakespeare‘s plays, and was thinking it might be a nice challenge for 2026. (2025 is full, lol.) 10h

dabbe @julieclair Now THAT would be fun. Maybe a buddy read for the Shakespearean plays in 2026? Maybe we could do it together? 🤔🤩🤗 9h
Mollyanna Thank you for sharing the list! 9h
BooksandCoffee4Me Cormac McCarthy‘s The Road and Edith Wharton‘s The House of Mirth so that I can understand my son‘s writings on those books. 9h
BookmarkTavern Shakespeare‘s plays are a lot of fun! Thanks for posting! 9h
dabbe @Mollyanna YW! 🩶🩷🩶 9h
dabbe @BooksandCoffee4Me I'm intimidated by McCarthy but Love Edith Wharton ... though I've never read MIRTH. Another one on the TBR! 🤩😂🤗 9h
dabbe @BookmarkTavern I've read a few but not all! YW! 🩶🩷🩶 9h
BooksandCoffee4Me @dabbe I‘m intimidated also but my son studied his writing as an English major at Wheaton College, and he keeps encouraging me to read McCarthy. Usually I just read my son‘s reviews, like this one, which is also intimidating 😁 https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/6249665317 9h

I have not finished all of Dickens's works. Or Shakespeare. I shy away from philosophical works because I fear I don't have the intellect to understand it. Although, I did enjoy Thoreau. I have tried Ulysses three different times and bailed. The Art of War is still on my TBR, too.

TheBookHippie @BookmarkTavern I‘ve read all of Alcott 🙃♥️ 20h
BookmarkTavern I‘ve bailed on Ulysses too! 😅 Thanks for posting! (edited) 9h

So many (depending on what “classic” includes). But I am trying to read more classics. I read 3 in Jan—Ward No. 6, Don Quixote, & Brave New World.

Next up, probably in March, will be the tagged.

The_Literary_Jedi I love Dostoevsky; he does human suffering so well! (sounds weird to say but I mean it) I call anything prior to my birth year a “classic” 😄 and it doesn‘t matter the genre. I read 1 classic a month and for Feb it‘s Metamorphosis by Ovid [sort of following Hardcore Lit list by Benjamin McEvoy] 21h
BookmarkTavern This one was such an intense read, but so interesting! Thanks for sharing! 9h

@Butterfinger ‘s response to last week‘s question made me realize I had never read any of Louisa May Alcott! So I‘m going to have the tagged book be my next read on Serial Reader! 🩷

#SundayFunday Have a great day, and don‘t forget to tag me!

Butterfinger Oh, goodness. I hope you enjoy it. The pressure 😁 21h
TheBookHippie Oh I hope you love it!!! 20h
melissajayne Your handle would be a great name for a bar (one that is suitable for reading 😉). 17h
BookmarkTavern @Butterfinger @TheBookHippie I‘m sure I will! And I know I‘m going to appreciate recognizing all the references in other media! 😁 @melissajayne I was actually inspired by a speakeasy bar in New York during Prohibition! It was called the Landmark Tavern! 9h
