The Norton Anthology of World Masterpieces | Maynard Mack

#latepost Check it out! My thickest book and thinnest book together--2 versions of the thinnest, one without even a squared off spine it's so thin! #thick #thin #30daysofreadathon

DeweysReadathon

StephBengtson I have that book too! It was for my college English class and I still love flipping through it every now and then. 7y

Natasha.C.Barnes @StephBengtson I have it from an early high school Great Books class (long story) but now I can't remember what I've read that was only a selection of the full text and what I've read in full! I remember Gilgamesh the best I think. I forgot how paper thin the pages are!! 😆 7y

Natasha.C.Barnes @StephBengtson I haven't looked through it in years but I feel like I should just read this start to finish and I'll be a much better educated person, especially from the point of non-western literature and history. 7y

StephBengtson I love the Emily Dickinson and Baudelaire sections. 😊 7y

A Poem for Every Day of the Year | Allie Esiri

I‘ve collected quite a few #thick poetry anthologies recently. Love these covers so much 📚❤️

#30daysofreadathon

AceOnRoam Those covers are gorgeous. 7y

AceOnRoam @Erin7 something to share at #ATB 7y

BucklingBookshelves @AceOnRoam they really are! These are technically children‘s collections so I‘m finding the selections are not too intimidating and have kept up fairly consistently during the year — though the “day” one is brand new :) What‘s #ATB? I‘m curious! 7y

AceOnRoam @Bucklingbkshelf they sound perfect for our Goodreads group Across The Bookshelves (#ATB). 7y

BucklingBookshelves @AceOnRoam ah, OK! Thanks :) 7y

AceOnRoam No worries, we also have children's literature reads. You should come and take a look? https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/248632 7y

BucklingBookshelves @AceOnRoam thanks! 7y

Jess_Read_This @AceOnRoam @Bucklingbkshelf These are stunning!!! I need these copies on my shelf.... (edited) 7y

Les Miserables [With Ribbon Marker] | Victor Hugo

It's not every book that makes Lord of the Rings look a bit thin but Les Miserables and The Count of Monte Cristo manage it, they are seriously #thick! #30daysofreadathon

vivastory Do you still get a jolt of happiness when you handle the Folio Count of Monte Cristo? 7y

Moray_Reads @vivastory I absolutely do. I need to set some time aside so that I can really enjoy reading it 7y

vivastory I really need to read it. I'm hoping to read Three Musketeers before the end of the year & The Count as my first big book of 2018 7y

Moray_Reads @vivastory you'll fly through it, considering its size it's a fairly quick read 7y

vivastory It's so weird to talk about planned books for 2018 already. 7y

Moray_Reads @vivastory it's October already, 2018 with be here before we know it 😉😬 7y

Meet Me in the Bathroom: Rebirth and Rock and Roll in New York City 2001-2011 | Lizzy Goodman

I picked a stack of #thick books I have used, and continue to use, as research/inspiration for the novel I'm writing which has a chunk focused on the punk scene in NYC... Bellevue is thrown in because mental and physical health is also an important aspect I needed to learn about. #30daysofreadathon

DeweysReadathon

IamIamIam Have you read Weekends at Bellevue? Very cool... But I'm super interested to hear about your book!!!! What years of the NYC punk scene are you researching? 7y

mrozzz @IamIamIam I have NOT. I'll make a note 🙂 my setting in the story is mid-late 80s but I became so interested in the scene I picked up this one covering years 2001-2011 just to have and extend my knowledge. My book is sort of all over the place still but it's all in NYC and focuses on drug use and mental instability in my main character and her mother's journals documenting her time in the punk scene. 7y

IamIamIam It's an interesting scene! I didn't pop in until all the crusty NYC punks moved on and pop punk was getting big, like 98-99. I liked my punk boys cute and without safety pins. 😂😂 But that sounds very compelling and keep me posted!!!! I'm inst 7y

IamIamIam D'oh... intetested to see how it all turns out! 7y

emilyhaldi Sounds very cool! 7y

mrozzz @IamIamIam same about the pop punk!! I am, unfortunately, too young to have lived through the original scene, safety pins and all. I'm so glad it sounds interesting! Sometimes I'm so deep in my own story that I don't even know how to talk about it. 7y

mrozzz @emilyhaldi yay! It's been a few years in the making. 😊✒️🖋 7y

IamIamIam I can't wait, @mrozzz!!!!! I bet it's going to be awesome!!! 7y

mrozzz @IamIamIam I'm so appreciative of the encouragement 😄 7y

I've really enjoyed everything I've read by Irving Stone, but I haven't tackled any of his extra #thick ones yet. #30daysofreadathon
