    I definitely wanna check out some of those ancient Greek classics. They have had so much of an effect on our modern culture.

      @kelseytm6715 I'm a good way through that book. This might be my favorite. I'm just gonna say that there's a long and amazing, eye-opening speech from a septon. As I've heard, it was definitely inspired by George RR Martin living through the Vietnam War era. He was able to get a Conscientious Objector status to avoid the draft because he sent in a story he wrote about a soldier who came home from war. It was a sci-fi story that got published in a magazine, but it was still about the aftereffects of war.

    I cannot BEGIN to tell you how much i love the kite runner, i wont spoil anything of the plot, but just urge that you have a go at it. A friend of mine recommended it to me when she read it for her A levels, and im so glad i did. 5/5

    You should google the painting Virgil reading Aeneid to Augustus by Jean Wicar it’s pretty cool.

    So were those pages from the EMMA book that fell out? I GASPED when I saw that 🫢
    Good haul though... I read EMMA a few years back after the most recent adaptation came out with Anya Taylor Joy and I of course LOVE Clueless... The book was good, but I did find the writing style less enjoyable

      It was a reader’s digest piece on the history of the book emma and about the illustrations and everything, its so cool. I love clueless so much! Did you like the adaption with Anya Taylor Joy?
