Your very full, very swishy cup of tea gave me great anxiety 😂😂 I’m glad I found your channel, I enjoyed this video
haha I get that a lot 😜 thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed 🌻✨
I absolutely love Shakespeare! I read Hamlet senior year and it holds in my memory because my senior class was supposed to finish it but then COVID hit and we never finished it. Also, To Kill A Mocking Bird is SO GOOD! I MAY HAD a crush on Atticus Finch when I first read this…in tenth grade 😅
'The Big Books' Book Club....Awesome Happy Sunday Friends
aw I'm sorry that happened! hahah fictional crushes are fully supported here 😌🧡
To Kill a Mockingbird is a book about the evils of prejudice. There are many mockingbirds in the south part of United States, where I live. “To kill a mockingbird” means to kill innocence. Mockingbirds sing beautifully and I always stop to listen to them. I think you will enjoy the book. Happy Reading!😊
What is the book about tho?
I'm looking forward to reading it! 🥰
the picture of dorian gray is one of the classics I want to read. I only read Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare. I hope you love these 🧡
would love to hear your thoughts about it
these are such wonderful reading plans! some advice for reading shakespeare: i recommend looking up a summary of the play before you read it (for example one of those ‘a midsummer night’s dream in 10 minutes’ videos here on youtube). that way you know the basic outline and even if the language gets complicated you still know what’s going on! also watching the play performed on stage (the national theatre and the shakespeare globe always have incredible productions that you can find online) will bring life to it and make it feel much more exciting!! i hope this helps, enjoy shakespeare :)
ohh thank you so much, I might do that!
I can't wait to hear your thoughts on all of these, hopefully in a years time! To Kill A Mockingbird is a bit of a controversial one now, but I adored it when I read it in school
really looking forward to reading, I'm glad you loved it!
Isabel Allende ❤
The Monk, I think is becoming a favorite for me. I wasn’t sure how I felt about it at first but I’ve thought about it at least once a month since I read it. I’ll definitely reread it next year.
I’m planning to read War & Peace in 2023 as well. I’m hoping January or February because for some reason I’ve enjoyed Tolstoy most in the winter months so far.
I want to read more Tolkien this coming year. Beren & Luthien most definitely.
So many more I want to get to. I need to start GOT, finish Earthsea, read some Shirley Jackson in the fall finally.
so glad you're loving The Monk, makes me more excited to read it
AHH, I love Classics TBRs so much! 😄 I completely agree with you about the Picture of Dorian Gray! ❤ Shakespeare is always my comfort read, so I'm definitely planning to get into some of his works next year as well :) I've read 6 of his plays so far, but I've only seen one live. I hope you'll enjoy Hamlet and Midsummer Night's Dream :) I was planning to read War and Peace this year, but it just didn't happen, so maybe I'll join you next year 😜 I've never read To Kill the Mockingbird either and I've always felt so bad about it, especially, because my auntie gifted me one of the most beautiful editions of it 10 years ago. 😊 I hope you're going to have a great time with the books you've chosen and I can't wait for you to reveal the secret one 😉
ohh which one did you see live? ✨
aww that's so sweet of your aunt ❤️ thank you lovely, I hope you have a wonderful reading time too 🥰 haha the secret shall be revealed soon!
@@MaryAmongStories I saw Henry V six years ago :) My husband and I were supposed to see Henry VIII this October, but unfortunately we had to cancel :( And thank you! 😊
I think it's a good idea to give yourself time with count of monte cristo and reading both les mis and that sounds like a lot for big books! I have read it already so can't join in with a buddy read but if there is a liveshow I'd love to see the discussion. YAY shakespeare!! Can't wait to see what you think of war and piece! And yes, I know why the caged bird sings is very intense emotionally, but it is well done too. Oh yes, beloved is absolutely amazing. Hope you can get to all of these and enjoy them 😇
yes, I definitely don't want to read them at the same time 🙈 I knew you'd be happy about Shakespeare haha
A wonderful video, Mary, I totally love your vibe, you seem so sweet 😊 And I'm totally the same with "Dorian Gray", I read it once when I was sixteen, loved it so much, and never read it again hahaha🙈Also, "Beloved" is amazing! totally recommend it :)
aw thank you so much, Naomi 🥰 so glad you loved Dorian Gray too!
I'm kind of glad that you and Ciara have postponed "The Count of Monte Cristo". I thought I had missed it (and stopped reading), but now I'll jump right back in!🧡
oh that's perfect, you definitely have plenty of time!
Me too as I only just joined the group and have wanted to reread this book for ages.
What a coincidence. I just found a used copy of The Monk. I have not heard too many people talk about it. Hopefully we will both get around to it next year.
I love Hamlet and A Midsummer Night's Dream. I'm more drawn to A Midsummer Night's Dream, personally. (Mostly because it is not as long. LOL) I think you will love it, especially since it has faeries and other fantasy elements and you are a fantasy reader. They also both have good movie adaptations. Sometimes seeing it acted out can help, if the language is a bit harder, because it's so old.
I really want to read some Isabel Allende too. I could never decide which. Perhaps I will use Rory as a guide too ! I never thought of doing that before. I love it. Gilmore Girls is the best!
how fun, I hope we both enjoy it!
ahh yes, I think I'll love it too precisely because of those reasons 🧚🏼♀️ yes!! Gilmore Girls is always a good bookish guide ✨
I watched this a bit ago but wasn't signed in to comment.....these reads are exciting and something nice to look forward to in the new year. Definitely hyped for Monte Cristo with Ciara.
thank you for watching, and yes I'm so excited for it! 🥰
It's ages ago I read Dorian Gray so I would like in the near future to read it once more.The Monk is a very entertaining read,while I have read Hamlet(again many years ago)and A Midsummer Night's Dream.I had hoped to get to Jude The Obscure,maybe in 2023!💝
hope we both enjoy it! :) ✨
Olá, Mary ☺️ I have been a follower for some time now, but it's my first time leaving a comment. All of these sound great. I also want to read Shakespeare next year. I have seen a couple of plays on stage and my favourite is Much Ado About Nothing (which I also read and loved). Now I want to read his other stories - I bought some in a second-hand bookshop and can't wait to get started.
Maya Angelou's book is amazing and a great one to start, I'm sure you will love it.
Adoro o teu canal
oh que querida, muito muito obrigada ❤️
nooo I haven't read that one yet, but really want to! I've seen it recently at a few bookstores and came really close to buying it haha 🥰
🎶I like big books and I cannot lie. You other brothers can't deny....🎶 Sorry... I couldn't help myself 😂
hahah you and me both 😝
😶I have the same cover of Monti Cristo but for Ross Poldark classic book
they're beautiful editions!
I love To Kill a Mockingbird, not too big a fan of the sequel tho
yes, I've heard it isn't as good! I'm not that interested in reading it either haha
@@MaryAmongStories I feel it really takes away from the first book, I say skip it but if you do end up reading the second one just be prepared for that
Great picks. I would personally love to see a reading vlog on The Picture Of Dorian Gray. I read the book this year and it blow me away. What a fantastic book. Wilde was a great writer. I really need to read more of his works soon.
so happy you loved the book! I definitely plan to film a dedicated reading vlog for it ✨
I read it for the first time this year too and fell in love with him! The Importance of Being Earnest is a short, very fun read from him as well.
Video ♡(ӦｖӦ｡) I would love to read War and Peace with someone because those weekly goals would be easier I believe hihii 🤭 I am definitely adding beloved because it sounds amazing ❤️ I hope you are doing well ✨ tons of hugs Mary 🌸
I might create a little buddy read section on Discord if people are interested 🥰 lots of hugs to you! xx
Not you saving Beloved for last 🥹 I hope you love it.
I'm pretty sure I will 🧡
obligatory excited monte cristo comment
wasn't expecting this at all
Most everybody says Beloved, but Toni Morrison's best work easily is Song of Solomon. The initial premise of Beloved that shocks everyone and everyone comments on was taken from a historical account (not the imagination of the author). That carries the book quite far, but that premise does not make the book as good as Song of Solomon, which is a truly Great Book (capital letters), and very beautiful and moving. Read both and let me know what you think. I bet Rory Gilmore would agree with me.
I do hear a lot of great things about it too! I'm looking forward to reading a lot of her works and see which ones I end up loving the most :) 🌻
Here’s my list of classics to read next year:
A hero of our time
Fathers and sons
The Fall by Camus
Nausea by Sartre
Franny and Zoey
Stoner
Middlemarch
great list, I'd love to read Stoner too! happy reading ✨
💗💗 I also need to read more Shakespeare!!!
And I miss running around bookstores with you!!!! 🥲🥰
MISS YOU 😭🧡
