The Hound of the Baskervilles & the Valley of Fear | Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Thank You @dabbe for #TLT #ThreeListThursday & for the tag ☺️👍🏼📚🎬.

My total was laughable...again 😂🤔...at least it wasn't zero this time😉.

I have watched AND read the The Hound Of The Baskervilles 📚💫🎬🥳.

When it comes to books-to-movies....I “usually“ select to watch “the movie“ and save reading for the books that haven't been adapted. Usually.

dabbe Adore those choices! Which BASKERVILLE movie did you see? I love the one with Basil Rathbone! And I love the 1994 LITTLE WOMEN version, too! Thanks for playing and sharing. 💚💜💚 1d

AnnCrystal @dabbe That's the most recent version I've seen of The Hound of the Baskervilles. We have Rathbone's Complete Sherlock Collection of fourteen movies 📚🎬💝. 1d

Thank you for the tag @dabbe 😊 I‘ve picked for my three, some Zola titles I‘ve not yet read. I will nominate all three for next year‘s #HashtagBrigade selections. 🤞 I know that Zola super fan @sisilia will support this! 😂

sisilia Yes!!! Hahaha 😅 2d

TheBookHippie Oh I adore Zola!!! 2d

dabbe Yay! Having never read anything of his, I'm excited! Thanks for playing and sharing. 💜💚💜 2d

Cuilin Fabulous idea. I‘ve read Germinal and own some others. 1d

#TLT @Dabbe

I guess I need to read Zola if anyone has a suggestion where to start.

Favorites:
Anna Karenina
The Awakening
Dorian Gray

Books I plan to read this year:
Fathers and Sons
Middlemarch

dabbe Zola seemed to kind of own this list, didn't he? I haven't read anything of his, so I hope people give you some suggestions and then I can “borrow“ from the list! P.S. I loved MIDDLEMARCH. Thanks for playing and sharing. 💚💜💚 2d

DGRachel I‘m going to have to reread Fathers and Sons. It‘s been 30 years - Turgenev is one of the first (and so far one of two) Russian authors I enjoyed reading. 2d

DGRachel …and I second Middlemarch. 2d

Ruthiella I keep pushing Zola for #HashtagBrigade books! Vote for him next year! 😂 2d

Cuilin @Ruthiella I think I nominated a Zola one year. I own a few but have only read a very depressing but good

Germinal

Ruthiella @Cuilin I have read also Germinal , but would be willing to read it again. It was depressing, though, I agree. 1d

I‘ve got to stop doing these. I consider myself well read - I certainly have read a lot in my lifetime, but these lists make me feel ignorant, or that I need to return my English Lit degree back to UCF. 😭😭
Anywho…love Les Mis, Fathers and Sons, Middlemarch, Great Expectations, and Little Women. Dostoyevsky on the other hand can go f*ck himself. 🤣🤣 #tlt #threelistthursday

dabbe I hate to contribute to making you feel this way! 😥 I try to see it more as fun and to add books to the TBR. I'm a retired high school English teacher, and I scored poorly, too--even worse than last week. We are both well read!!! There are just so many DAMN books out there that we'll never beat 'em! You're in excellent company, m'dear. Thanks for playing and sharing. 💜💚💜 2d

DGRachel @dabbe I always felt bad for my HS English teachers because every year someone would ask what they read for fun and most of them said they didn‘t have the luxury of reading for fun, that they were always (re)reading books they were teaching. As for these quizzes, I just hate doing poorly on anything. 🤣🤣🤣 2d

dabbe @DGRachel I would have LOVED to have had you as a student; you would have been my ace! 🥰 2d

I did worse than last week! 🤣 Here's hoping we all do better when we finally get into the 1900s! Three faves include, but are definitely not limited to:
1. TESS OF THE D'URBERVILLES (fave read of all of 2023)
2. GREAT EXPECTATIONS: Fave Dickens.
3. THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES: fave book of ALL TIME. #sherlocked

Texreader Three. I‘ve read three. 2d

BooksandCoffee4Me Well, 19 this week. I loved looking at the covers of these books — some I‘d never seen before. Loved Sister Carrie, and the Hardy novels. Crime and Punishment and Tess are two of my all-time favorite books. 2d

dabbe @Texreader Here's hoping the 1900s are better for all of us! Most of these I haven't even heard of! 😱 Thanks for playing and sharing. 💜💚💜 2d

dabbe @RaeLovesToRead Thanks for playing and sharing. 💜💚💜 2d

dabbe @BooksandCoffee4Me I tried to pick appealing covers! I love Hardy, too. TESS was my #1 fave in 2023 with the #hashtagbrigade. I'm scared to try CRIME & PUNISHMENT because I did not like THE KARAMAZOV BROS. 🤣 Thanks for playing and sharing. 💜💚💜 2d

Catsandbooks 3😂 2d

Amor4Libros Went up from 1 last week to 3! 🤣🤣🙌🏽 2d

dabbe @Catsandbooks So many I didn't know! 🤣 I'm looking forward to the 1900s! Thanks for playing and sharing. 💚💜💚 1d

I 💜 Zola and also ❤ Gide (not pictured, I couldn't choose)

I may have marked a couple of books that I never quite finished. But so many good-and-long reads on this section of The List.

The 1800s were not any better to me. The few that I had read was years ago. Some go back to high school days.

Play? @Kshakal @TheBookHippie @DebinHawaii @Cupcake12 @Blueberry @Texreader @Read4life

dabbe Boy, they do go back a ways, don't they? I'm hoping the 1900 books will give us all better scores! 🤣 Thanks for playing and sharing. 💚💜💚 2d
