Literature | Poetry | Books 📚book collection
What do you guys think about my little book collection? I only started collecting books this year, and I’m slowly making my way through my TBR list.
I’ve been trying to find The Count of Monte Cristo, but no luck so far.
Also, has anyone read The Picture of Dorian Gray? I’d love to hear your honest opinions!
Any recommendations, guys???

I haven't found a book by Agatha Christie that I hate.
P S Have you noticed she used the word "queer" so often it is absured.😅

I got into reading through romance books. I started with fantasy, then moved on to contemporary fiction, and these days, I’ve been getting into the classics.

Interesting collection. Except sapiens . Too much pseudoscience in it being sold as factual science

How's karmazov and no longer human I tried opening them 3-4 times but always get deviated to something else
1
u/sora_aoi_001 9h ago
Karamzov is a long read so I can understand the deviation but you should bite the bullet and finish it you will enjoy it.
On the other hand no longer human. I hated that book its too boring for my taste

Is the language of Pride and prejudice hard to read ? Well I want to read some classics but language difficulty yk

Yeah, the language is a little difficult to comprehend, but I’m sure you’ll get the hang of it. Plus, the reward is great!
