Les Miserables (Movie Tie-In): (Movie Tie-In) | Victor Hugo

#seasonsreadings2016 - #classiciveneverread

I've yet to read a novel by Victor Hugo. He's been on my list for a while now (as have hundreds of other classic authors. 😬)

Reviewsbylola I read a good portion of Les Mis but nothing else by Hugo. 8y

Betty I had a copy of my daddy's Les Mis. Enjoyable read! 8y

The Count of Monte Cristo | Alexander Dumas

A #classicIveneverread. I know a lot of people that like it, but the plot has yet to appeal enough to me to start it. #seasonsreadings2016

Suzze This one has never made me think I might want to read it. 😁 8y

LauraBeth I recently watched the movie and loved it. I want to eventually read it. 8y

In Search of Lost Time | Marcel Proust

#classiciveneverread I have the full six volume Modern Library set of the Proust classic that I've never read. I keep thinking maybe it's something I'll read when I retire. #seasonsreadings2016

moranadatter Aspirational book purchases! Love those. 8y

Reviewsbylola I admit I have also never read Proust! 8y

Redwritinghood @kmdartist Yes, but I'm not sure if I'm being ambitious or crazy thinking I'll read these. Time will tell! 8y

Wuthering Heights | Emily Bront�

This is embarrassing, but since I'm among the safe space that is Litsy, I'll admit it: I've never read Wuthering Heights. This might not be so bad, but I'm an English major and doing my graduate work in British Literature. 😂 I never had to read it for school (high school or college) and it just never showed up on my radar. I definitely need to read it for 2017!❤️📚#seasonsreadings2016 #classiciveneverread

Ashley31 I didn't read it until I had to teach it during my student teaching semester. I was an English major as well. Lol. Let us know what you think! 8y

TheLondonBookworm I did the same thing for ages with Jane Eyre- took me forever to get around to it 😂 8y

8little_paws I haven't either! 8y

Leelee08 @Ashley31 I will do that...thanks for making me feel better! 8y

Leelee08 @TheLondonBookworm I know the feeling😊 8y

Leelee08 @8little_paws 😊😊😊 8y

Ashley31 Sure thing @Leelee08 8y

JanuarieTimewalker13 Neither have I. I feel like this is some kind of Classics confessional. Lol 8y

Leelee08 @JanuarieTimewalker13 😂😂 It's making me feel so much better! 8y

KilgoreTrout You are not alone!! I even have it sitting on my shelf! Definitely this year... 8y

Leelee08 @KilgoreTrout Yes! We'll tackle it together!😀 8y

OrangeMooseReads I haven't read it either! 8y

JanuarieTimewalker13 @Leelee08 hahahaha!! I just had to confess on @sprainedbrain post too!!! Is this like classics confessions day? 8y

Leelee08 @OrangeMooseReads 😀😀😀 8y

Leelee08 @JanuarieTimewalker13 I guess so! We've got a lot of reading to do...😂 8y

Viji Just read it this year and was very disappointed after having heard it touted as a great romance. Not much romance and a lot of whining 😞 8y

Leelee08 @Viji Lol. You never know until you try, right?🤓 8y

Gezemice I read it last year, after I read Jane Eyre, which I loved. This one, I really did not like. It seems people are split on it - hopefully you will love it. 8y

Gezemice @Viji Yep, same here. Whining is a good way to put it. 8y

Leelee08 @Gezemice Now I'm worried about it😂 Hopefully, it'll be ok....I might need to lower my expectations lol 8y

moranadatter I've never read it either. My undergrad degree was in English and I specialized in 19th Century British literature. I'll get around to it someday. 8y

sprainedbrain @JanuarieTimewalker13 @Leelee08 Since we are confessing, I didn't read Wuthering Heights until this year! I am doing my best to catch up on all the classics I have avoided until now. No shame! Lol 8y

Gezemice @sprainedbrain I am doing the same, for the last year and a half. This was one of them. 8y

Reviewsbylola English major here too. We watched bits of the movie in one of my college courses and I enjoyed it enough that I read it on my own time. I have a ton of classics though that I've ashamedly never read. 8y

JanuarieTimewalker13 @sprainedbrain no worries!!! I just set womankind back about 4 decades...you'll see under other post. 8y

That-Bookish-Hiker Nothing to be ashamed about! I've read it but couldn't finish it because I really disliked Heathcliff. I've never read Pride and Prejudice 🙈. 8y

Krisjericho @Viji YES. 8y

Viji @leelee08, I'm still glad I finally read it. Carry on! 8y

aeeklund If you're a Tom Hardy fan, you really need to watch the adaptation where he plays Heathcliff... >.> 8y
