A Study in Scarlet | Arthur Conan Doyle

In my attempt to read #classics and more #AgathaChristie, I completed these for #santhiReads2017
I used to read more Poirot mysteries during school days but now I seem to prefer Miss Marple. I should try to read all her titles

I keep buying classics because I feel like they're things every self-proclaimed bookworm should read at some point, but then they just gather dust on my shelf. So, I'm really excited for this challenge as it'll help me get through them all! 🤓 Anyone else signing up?

Here's my list 👉 https://rachelworksforbooks.com/2018-back-to-the-classics/

Lucas.Rencher I love classics! 😀 7y

Eggs Nice list. I've always liked Wharton, L M Montgomery, Camus, and Dickens. The rest I'm not familiar with. Think how intelligent you'll be after finishing those-a Renaissance woman! 7y
readinginthedark I‘m not doing the challenge, but I love classics! My go-tos so often! 7y
BookishMe That was one of my goals this year and I targeted books written in the 19th century. Initially started with Jules Verne, Conan Doyle (even HG Wells) when I realized I wanted to know other female writers from that era, besides the Bronte sisters. Classics included in #santhiReads2017 been a enjoyable discovery, obviously ;D 7y

Summer by the Sea | Susan Wiggs

Completed 1 more for the #SummerReads this #JubilantJuly

From the ebook, I had to borrow the paperback which was conveniently available at the nearest library. The recipes kept me hooked despite the inconsistent characters and some cringy lines. But it is kinda nice to breeze through a clichéd romance chick lit now and then ;p

If being unwell means not distracted and uninterrupted reading, bring on dizzy spells. #santhiReads2017 classics 4 ✔️

Breezy #SummerReads 3 - found the characters developing inconsistently but it's an easy light read

completed the 3+1 selected books as planned #bookclub
#JubilantJuly

There are several current reads but I will still start the Chopin for #santhiReads2017 classics (4 I think ;))
