Pride and Prejudice >.< I'm a huge fan of it. I just watched the 2005 movie . . . I love Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth.
I haven't much ventured into the classics yet. Though I will say that there is a lot of them free for kindle on Amazon, including The Idiot.
Cheyenne: there is a website (http://www.gutenbergproject.org) where you can download almost all of the classics for free. The copyright of most of them have expired so they are available to all!
I love classics! I've read almost everything by Jane Austen and the Brontë sisters plus a ton of other Classic authors. I love anything by Austen.
I totally agree. I got Frankenstein today at a Book Attic. Place was fantastic, the idea is that all books are free and when you're done with them you trade them in or donate other books. This way everybody can read! I got 9 books... XD
That sounds like a great place to be, I wish I had something like that nearby. Has anyone ever tried paperbackswap.com? I love trading books I don't really want for books that I do. Also, if you like Austen have you seen any media adaptations? I love most of the films but have you tried the Lizzie Bennet Diaries webseries on youtube? It's addicting.
I love the Classics too ... one of my favorites is: The Scarlet Pimpernel. They don't even know who wrote the book. Its set during the revolutionary war in France. The Scarlet Pimpernel helps the aristocrats escape. Plus its a love story w/ a twist. Has everything.
