2022 year of classics

130 replies

I normally read historical fiction or just contemporary fiction and the odd biography. But there are so many classics that I both want to read and feel I should.

I have lined up Little Women to start with.
Dracula, The brothers Karamazov, Wuthering Heights and Anna Karenina.

Any suggestions of classics that you have loved?

I’ve been meaning to read North and South for ages - will kick off January with this.

Shall we all post reviews of what we’ve read?

Yes that would be great.

I read Animal Farm last year during lockdown and was surprised how much I enjoyed it!
Hmm wonder if I should re visit that. I did it for English A'level. Maybe reading it from a less analytical perspective would be better. Mind you I do remember liking it.
