What is your favourite classic book?

Maniacal Laughter

despite there being much wrong with it in terms of content and ideology, I absolutely loved Bram Stoker’s Dracula. The style and structure of the novel are amazing imo (in general love 1800 english writing) and really suck you in.

Really loved Pride and Prejudice, it’s snarky, funny, endearing and very relatable to sassy introverts XD. Also cute love story even though the plot was very predictable imo. Would recommend if you like the idea of an enemies to lovers without the spice.

Animal Farm had me shoook, it was very well written and absolutely terrifying. I don’t know much from Russian history, so I didn’t catch all the references, but still the narrative hit home. Currently reading through Watership Down and although it’s about 90% cuter, I see some similarities between the two. Would also recommend especially if you like Tolkien’s worldbuilding skills and rabbits.
