classics shelves in one edition are sooooo satisfying
they are my babies!! i love just staring at them haha
Question:
Are the penguin classic with the orange penguin the same with the white and black one? Or one is UK and the other USA?
ok i know multiple people have commented this already but TRULY these books look so good on the shelves all lined up its just excellent
they are truly a work of art!!
So many pretty books! I love the aesthetic of these shelves :) this has put me in a classics mood!!
thank you!! i love them too, and classics mood is the best mood
Now I kind of want to do one with my penguin clothbounds and paperback classics editions even though I don't have as many as you. Loved seeing all of your classics and how dedicated you are to collecting them! And some of your opinions on the books as well. Yess so glad crime and punishment also got five stars from you it's honestly just that good :D One day I am going to read the odyssery as well. I even have it waiting for me. Oh no I have one flew overs the cuckoos nest! I have seen the film and I did like it. Frankenstein
id love to see your collection! hopefully you like one flew over the cuckoos nest more, it just didnt do anything for me but it is very popular. thats interesting you read gullivers travels in primary school, i didnt realise it was suitable for younger readers (as in the writing obviously, i dont expect drugs and sex haha)
i cant get over how good these shelves look!!
thank you bestie!!
Your feelings on Villette made me feel validated 😂 I just can’t finish it. What a great collection. I’m with you on the new editions completely.
i think i want to reread it eventually now that i know what to expect, but compared to jane eyre it was so disappointing. not as bad as shirley though, that book is just not good honestly. and yess i really despise the new editions, i feel like removing the orange text just makes them so boring and the white line is far far too thick
Omg all of them lined up is SO aesthetically pleasing
arent they!? i love it. although the fact the white lines dont all line up perfectly lowkey gets on my nerves haha
i love when books have little notes and things from past owners!! i’m so excited to read maurice
i just bought the picture of dorian grey in the penguin classics edition!!
yeah same its cute! although sometimes they take it too far and write everywhere. i hope you like them!!
Wow, I want something like this... Really love penguin books but some of the editions are hard to get in Germany 😢.. Wuthering heights is a favorite ❤
I love the look of Penguin classics! The black spine ones are so sleek. You have a great collection =)
same i just love the spines on them all together, thank you!
Love the way you've found the perfect shelf height for all of these! 👍
omg when i realised they fit in there it felt like divine destiny!
Oh no, didn't know that there were different editions of the black spine classics. Need to pay attention when building my collection then!
The shelves look so nice 😍
yeah they have brand new editions that i only started to see last year, im not a fan!! and thank you
pretty sure you're the booktube classics king. your shelf looks SOO good. I think it's so nice that you can have a shelf in alphabetical order because they are all the same edition and look well together that way.
omgg i really hope i am tbh. and thank you!! im obsessed with it haha
That's a lot of Bronte! Aww, I liked Gulliver's Travels! That's a great collection!
im a stan! ive not written off gullivers travels forever but its definitely low priority haha, thank you!!
I hate falling in love with a line of classics and then them not have a classic I want!!
i knoww, penguin classics is pretty safe for that since they do have most things. id love for them to republish some of the lgbt classics ive talked about in my video series because a lot of the editions of them ive had to buy are old, expensive and rare-ish
i have MORE classics in my cart now 😭😳
youre gonna have to actually start reading them and not just buying them 😭
@@ConnorStompanato leave me alone i’ve read 3 classics this month and i’m on my fourth ho
they look so nice all lined up next to each other!
ikr?! i love themm
The collection looks so good!
thank you!
I am SO impressed by these beauties, and even more impressed by the fact that all of your editions match and you've got all the same time period of penguin classics!! The only consistency I have is the wordsworth classic editions (don't judge me) and the rest of my classics are just a damn mess hahaha
i used to really like wordsworth classics but i decided to unhaul them and just streamline everything to being the one edition. i had soo many random editions from different publishers at first too
@@ConnorStompanato see that makes logical sense, I’ll have to show my classics at some point cause it’s just a mess hahaha
Good job!
that's a nice collection :-) i really liked wuthering heights
thank you!! and same, its one of my favourites
So rare finding fellow Scottish ppl on the internet
haha we're here!
Aahhaha very cute i have 709 of these
That shelf and books looks like a black wealth box
haha its my pride and joy!
💜💜💜
The other stories in that dr jekell and Mr Hyde are worth a read. I prefered olalla to the strange case lol
Not gonna lie can't stand penguin paperback classics!! They are so flimsy and fall apart far too easily. But they do look good on a shelf altogether 😂😂 and your summary of The Picture of Dorian Gray was the best most accurate description that exists 😂😂
honestly im all about aesthetics above everything else, they do get messed up easily but i kinda like the worn down look. and hahaha i didnt go into this video planning to summarise books so i was just pulling thoughts from my brain
Villette haters don't deserve rights
i dont HATE IT it just was disappointing after jane eyre :( i do want to reread at some point
so glad you got on with Crime and Punishment! hope the Russian video is brought back to life one day =]
i loved it, so glad i finally picked it up! the russian video will hopefully happen one day haha, i literally rage quit trying to film it
@@ConnorStompanato Don’t worry if you want to wait before making it. Generally they are not easy books and repay reading several times. The plots are complicated and many-layered, especially those of Dostoyevsky.
I hate Jekyll and Hyde so much.. One of the only classics I've ever read... Maybe it's more just cause I had to study it in high school.
Kidnapped is one that I really like actually and might try and re-read if I can remember where my copy is 🙈🙈
So badly want to read Dorian Gray it's unreal
I'm kinda surprised you don't have Treasure Island and Dracula
it might have been! school kinda sucks the fun out of most things tbh. i had dracula in the old 80s penguin classics edition so i unhauled it after i read it, definitely want to find a nicer one at some point!
Don’t be put off Gulliver’s Travels.
i still own it but its still unread for now. one day!
