BarkingMadRead @Cuilin great choices! I‘m not adding Anna Karenina, only because it was a buddy read in the last couple years, either with me or someone else, I can‘t remember! 2w
Cuilin @BarkingMadRead no worries (edited) 2w
Ruthiella Looking forward to whatever we end up choosing! 😃 (edited) 2w
TheAromaofBooks The Turn of the Screw, The Maltese Falcon, and The Crime at Black Dudley were on the “Time Magazine Best Mystery Books of All Time“ list that @dabbe posted the other day and that I thought sounded intriguing. 2w
Ruthiella @TheAromaofBooks Ooh! Classic crime novels are also a great idea! (edited) 2w

TheAromaofBooks @Ruthiella - I was thinking of listing The Woman in White, too, as it was also on that list 😂 2w
TheAromaofBooks @dabbe - You have some good ones - some I've never read and some I wouldn't mind rereading!! 2w
dabbe @TheAromaofBooks You're way more on the ball than me; I haven't read ANY! 😂 2w
TheAromaofBooks @dabbe - I'll admit some were so far back in the mists of time that I don't really remember them at all 😂 2w
BarkingMadRead @dabbe I added most of them 🤣 I read Pickwick last summer, and I just finished Pillars in August. Is there another Follett you‘d like to read instead? 2w
dabbe @BarkingMadRead I've not read ANY Follett, so any other one will do.
Maybe for Dickens: OLIVER TWIST, his GHOST STORIES, or LITTLE DORRIT.

Thanks! 🤩😂🤗

Ruthiella @dabbe You‘ve just planned the brigade‘s reading for the next three years. 🤣 2w
dabbe @Ruthiella Once I started, I couldn't stop!!! 🤩😂🤗 2w
julieclair How are we ever going to choose? 2w
Bookwormjillk @dabbe I love the idea of Dickens- adding David Copperfield to the mix since I just read Demon Copperhead. Also One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, The Color Purple, Breakfast at Tiffany's, and Tender Is The Night. Yes I know I posted on the other thread too I just can't stop myself. 2w
BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk nominations are easy, it‘s the voting that‘s going to be hard 🤣 2w
Bookwormjillk @BarkingMadRead yeah and then we have to read them 😂 2w
dabbe @Bookwormjillk So many fabulous, unread books out there! 😱 2w
Bklover What @dabbe said. Would love to read Follett and Collins. And I‘d love to read One Hundred Years of Solitude (again). I love that book, and it‘s fun to read with others. Voting for all these great suggestions is going to be tough! 2w

I adored the movie as a teenager. The dialogue of the saucy sea captain was a delight to read, as was the relationship that develops between Mrs. Muir and her captain ghost. The movie followed the book fairly well, and I totally applaud the movie for leaving out the dreaded son, Cyril. A quick read at < 200 pages, if you love an impossible romance, this one suffices. Yet, I think I prefer the movie over the book. Probably because of #sexyrexy. 😀
