I'll try to film this one then! Not sure if it'll be obscure or just Victorian authors that are new to me. There's a decent amount of overlap between those two, but I've never read Gissing and I wouldn't call him obscure.
Indeed it will be! There are just so many Trollope books I want to read. And I think I will make that video, but you are definitely already familiar with all of the books. Plus, some of them really aren't that obscure.... maybe it should be Victorian authors on my shelves that I'd like to try (or something along those lines).
Yes, I would love to see a video of the obscure works! I'll also be reading the group read and David Copperfield, and The Odd Women. If I finish the Trollope early, I'll squeeze in a short Wilkie Collins.
Ooh, I think we'll have at least one overlap--although I am still solidifying my list. Anne Lister is a fascinating book. I can't wait to see Emma Donohue's book about her! (And yes to video about lesser-known Victorian authors!)
Ooh! I can't wait to see your TBR Hannah! I'd love to buddy read the overlapping book, but I'm far too unreliable to commit to these kinds of things lately. I hope I can read as much as I'd like for Victober. And yes! I can't wait for Emma Donoghue's newest book! I feel like I might want to read it and Anne Lister's diaries and finally watch the second season of Gentleman Jack all around the same time.
@@BlatantlyBookish Oh yes--I too am awfully unreliable about that kind of thing right now, but maybe when all is calm for both of us, we can find something to read together. I'd love that.
I just finished The Last Chronicle of Barset and loved it so so much. Very happy you are reading it now! I agree that seeing your obscure Vicotian literature would be wonderful!
That's wonderful to hear! I'm enjoying it immensely so far, but reading is unfortunately very slow going for me lately. I had hoped to finish it already. I should have a video with lesser known authors posted today. I wonder if they are truly lesser known since they were apparently all so famous in their day. I'll let you decide.
I too would love to see your collection of obscure Victorian literature. 😊📚. My Victorian TBR is so large!!! But I have narrowed it down to 4-5 books. It’s so hard when you want to read all the books!😊
I swear it gets harder and harder to narrow this TBR down each year. I have so many other things I was considering that I didn't even stick in this video, and I might change my mind when Victober comes around.
I read Wonderful Adventures of Mrs. Seacole in Many Lands last year - it's really worth a read! I would love to see a video of lesser known Victorian books, definitely. I have a TBR video out soon - I hope!
I hope I get around to reading the Wonderful Adventures of Mrs. Seacole. It's been a tough start to Victober for me. The lesser known Victorian Authors videos should get posted today! 😊
I would love to hear about more obscure Victorian literature. The only book you have on your TBR that I have read is David Copperfield which I loved. I'm a big Charles Dickens fan. As I've never read any of Anthony Trollope's work I'm looking forward to this years read along.
I'm so excited for you to experience Anthony Trollope's work for the first time with us! He's fantastic. And it is high time I got around to David Copperfield. I've heard such wonderful things, and I've liked every Dickens I've read so far.
We have Jill and Romance of a Shop in common which is fun. Romance is quite short so I hope you get to fit it in. I should be reading The Small House at Allington but it didn't fit the prompts and we have a fat Trollope already. So perhaps I will make it a December treat as I do want to keep up with completing the series.
Oh how wonderful! I can't wait to chat about Victorian literature all month long with you! I know what you mean about having too many fat Trollope books to get to lol. I was going to make Jill more of a priority than Romance of a Shop, but perhaps I'll switch that around. I can't wait to watch your TBR later! I'd do it now, but I'm trapped in a nap with no headphones.
Looks like you have an exciting Victober ahead of you! I always find it so motivating to see people reading the books they've been meaning to for a while 😆 I hope you enjoy The Last Chronicle of Barset!
With my crazy Oct schedule, I will be living vicariously through your channel this Victober, so many of those reads sound so exciting! So yes yes! More reviews on those lesser known Victorian books pls!
I hope you're able to live vicariously through my channel this Victober! I likely won't be able to read or film as much as I'd like to with a 6 m. old, but I'm trying to be optimistic.
We are the alabaster come to Life; the wanderers above a sea of fog. Thy happy ever after was soon thine, but if you wanted that you need a job. As forklifts sweep away the jaguar’s prints, thy face conceals the same displace’ed pur. Those forest treestumps art our precipice; Erato’s portrait peering down unnerved. The angels’d rather see us pick rosebuds in togas of pink, in togas of blue, in freedom where we can be what we want beneath the cancer sun and leo moon. How could they even tax our humanhood? and even worse, how could we just comply?
I think Ann Lister is Regency. Or I heard so. I'm already three hundred pages into The Way We Live Now. It is a good book. I can't believe I have more to go than I have read.
Yes, so Anne Lister's first volume of her diaries is Regency and the second volume spans into the Victorian Era. I'm glad you're enjoying The Way We Live Now
I’d love to see a video highlighting some lesser known Victorian literature. Your current TBR is quite ambitious. Mine is a bit more traditional with North and South, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall and the Canterbury Ghost.🍂
It's definitely too ambitious with everything going on in my life lately, but we'll see what I can get to. I hope you enjoy North and South and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. They're two of my favorites! And I think I will make that video.... it might end up being something like Victorian Authors on my Shelves that I've Never Read or something like that though.
I feel like everyone is reading Jill this year which is great 😂I'll also be reading both The Way We Live Now & The Last Chronicle of Barset this Victober 😃But I won't be in a rush to finish the latter in October because the goal is to complete it (and therefore the series) by the end of the year
Yea I was definitely too ambitious with the limited reading time I have lately. I think you have the right idea to take your time with all the chunky books. Happy Victober! 🥰
I would love to see your more obscure Victorian lit collection! I am curious!
I'll try to film this one then! Not sure if it'll be obscure or just Victorian authors that are new to me. There's a decent amount of overlap between those two, but I've never read Gissing and I wouldn't call him obscure.
I love that it will be a Trollope filled Victober!! I would love a video on your lesser known Victober books.

Plus, some of them really aren't that obscure.... maybe it should be Victorian authors on my shelves that I'd like to try (or something along those lines).
I'll be reading Jill and David Copperfield too! How great to hear Jill will cover all the prompts for new readers of Dillwyn as I am.
How wonderful!! I can't wait to hear what you think of them! 💕
Yes, I would love to see a video of the obscure works! I'll also be reading the group read and David Copperfield, and The Odd Women. If I finish the Trollope early, I'll squeeze in a short Wilkie Collins.
What a wonderful selection! I loved The Odd Women when I read it a while back. Happy Victober! 💕

@@BlatantlyBookish Oh I agree! My TBR possibilities on Goodreads is ridiculous! 😁📚
Definitely show us the more obscure Victorian books on your shelves 😊💜
Will do! Though you're probably already familiar with it all from Kate Howe and Katie.
I read Wonderful Adventures of Mrs. Seacole in Many Lands last year - it's really worth a read!
I would love to see a video of lesser known Victorian books, definitely. I have a TBR video out soon - I hope!

I’m going to be rereading David Copperfield, listening to the audiobook by Richard Armitage!
That sounds wonderful. I've heard great things about that audiobook version. Happy Victober!
I am interested in Amy Dillon's Jill and David Copperfield as well. Thanks for the recommendation, I found your channel from Hannah's books
Oh wonderful! I hope your Victober reading goes well. And welcome! I'm delighted that you found my channel. 😊

Thank you Meghan! I hope you are having a wonderful Victober as well! My reading is great, but going slower than I'd hoped.
I'm glad you're enjoying the reading you're doing, and I hope you get more time to do it!@@BlatantlyBookish

We are the alabaster come to Life;
the wanderers above a sea of fog.
Thy happy ever after was soon thine,
but if you wanted that you need a job.
As forklifts sweep away the jaguar’s prints,
thy face conceals the same displace’ed pur.
Those forest treestumps art our precipice;
Erato’s portrait peering down unnerved.
The angels’d rather see us pick rosebuds
in togas of pink, in togas of blue,
in freedom where we can be what we want
beneath the cancer sun and leo moon.
How could they even tax our humanhood?
and even worse, how could we just comply?
