Ten Books I can’t believe I’ve never read

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.

If you are new to my blog, I just wanted to share with you that I co-host a monthly bookish link party called A Good Book and A Cup of Tea (no, you don’t have to drink tea to participate) and you can find a link to it at the top of the page.

The link party is for all book-related posts from reviews and recommendations to …well, anything related to books at all. Including Top Ten Tuesday if you want to link your top ten there too!

Today’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is: books I can’t believe I’ve never read

Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë

I’ve been interested but just haven’t got there. Hopefully one day.

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

Another one I just haven’t gotten to.

Or anything by Jane Austen. I got halfway through Mansfield Park at least.  I will get there!

The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexander Dumas

Have you seen how big this thing is?!

A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens

I tried! I tried! *sobbing* It beat me!

Moby Dick by Herman Melville

Whales. Sailing. Ocean. Didn’t think it would interest me and now I feel bad I haven’t read it yet.

The Great Gatsby by F. Scot Fitzgerald

Seems like it might be my thing but I’ve never read it.

The Diary of Anne Frank

Just couldn’t do it. Too emotional. Too sad thinking of the future she never had and should have had.

The Hiding Place by Corrie Ten Boom

I am one step closer. I bought the book a couple of months ago. Similar to Anne Frank, though, it’s a difficult one to read. I know enough about it to know that.

The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Graham

I don’t know why I haven’t read this one. Again, it sounds like my thing … I need to do it already.

The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling

Like most, I’ve seen the Disney cartoon but never read the book.  

Have you read any of these?

  1. I just commented on Laura at Literacious’ blog that The Wind in the Willows is the first chapter book I read to Wyatt. He was six weeks old so he doesn’t remember. I do though. It was spring and all the windows were open and our apple tree was blossoming. It was lovely.

    I also really loved The Jungle Book as a kid! I have a few copies of it.
