Welcome to Litsy!

Apologies for the rubbish pic! My daughter has become obsessed with Hardy after reading Jude on holiday - just found this in local charity shop. It's lovely and illustrated 😀

Two classics currently are languishing on my TBR. One from 2010 and one from 2006. Yikes. I should get reading.

A couple of hefty tomes from my #TBR that I've been meaning to read for ages! #classicsTBR #junebookbugs

I'm late on the #junebookbugs 😬 but this is my #classicsTBR. I watched the miniseries and I'm so intrigued by the politics of it. Is it pro-worker or pro-capitalist overlord? Like the heroine I ended up falling for the industrial boss in spite of myself. @RealLifeReading

I have had quite the stack of classics on my TBR list for a while. I hope to finish these ones this year. I don't expect that I will find all of them to be great. Some may even be frustrating to read. Of all of them A Tree Grows In Brooklyn is the one that I am the most excited to read.

#junebookbugs #classicsTBR Just a few I own and am yet to read. The two in the middle which are hard to make out are Dombey and Son by Charles Dickens, and Shirley by Charlotte Bronte.

#JuneBookBugs #day23 #ClassicsTBR While I have read some of the classics on this shelf (Wizard Of Oz, Dracula, The Secret Garden etc) most will be first time reads for me. I'm slowly collecting the ones I want to read, dymocks have a 3for$33 on penguin classics right now, but there's a lot I still want and choosing which edition is the hardest! I want Rebecca by Daphne DuMarier but do I splurge on the Folio or get the WordCloud edition?🤔

So very many #classicsTBR! If only life were much longer. #junebookbugs

#junebookbugs day 23 - #classicstbr

Have dipped into Russian literature here and there, but never anything like what you think when you hear "russian novel." Got a great deal on these like-new Wordsworth editions, translations that came recommended specifically.

A bit late posting this one; I finally folded and got an XBox 360 controller to play Steam games. Even old titles feel new now. Like I didn't have enough distracting me from reading.

This has been languishing on my shelf for too long.
