pickA genuine epic on revenge and humanity. Outstanding story telling that is still as accessible and enjoyably readable today as it always has been. This is a classic for a reason.
1) Jane Eyre and The Count of Monte Christo.
2) Red Queen
3) I'm decent at French and I know a few phrases in Russian and Spanish.
4) Power Rangers, Angry Beavers, Rugrats, Keenan and Kell...I watched a lot of TV as a kid lol

Film and stage versions make this into a #swashbuckler, but it‘s really about using one‘s brains to ensnare people through their own character flaws to enact revenge. #oldcoolbooks @Linsy
I‘ve have not read this yet but this face made think of this #👹 for #emojinov today. I think it‘s the redness.
- I *think* The Count of Monte Cristo (also my favorite book). Goodreads said The Stand but I think my paperback was a shade shorter than Count.
- It really depends. In average I read books that are about 300-400 pages but if I read a whole longer book it's probably awesome because I have no qualms about DNFing.

- ... coffee
- Always loved it

Today is #bookloversday!! So, here's a part of my rearranged shelf to celebrate! 💙
It's very good, but I seem to have been reading this FOREVER .... revenge is a dish best served very, very cold. #rorygilmorereadinglist #frenchliterature #Dumas #classics #doorstops
Finished Anna Karenina last and finally decided my next big challenge book.You know it's going to be a long haul when, after finishing the first issue, it still says you are 0% through the book. #bigbooks17
So technically my Carrie Fisher book is a #bookface but I already posted about that today so I chose this book for #riotgrams! I read a simplified version of this book when I was about 12-13 and I really wanted to check out the whole unabridged version, but it does look daunting!
pickSet in early 1800s France, The Count of Monte Christo is a tale of love, adventure, and revenge, with wide array of characters, including some Italian bandits. I enjoyed it, and would recommend, especially if you like classic lit.
My dad's copy of his favourite book. He died five years ago and reading his books always makes me feel close to him. I often find 19th century literature too dense for my modern reading tastes, but I know this is a ripping yarn full of adventure and intrigue to keep me reading!
