I was tagged by the twinny icarus-drunk to pick 5+ books of a certain colour, which in this case was blue! im sorry for the godawful camera quality. From top to bottom (in no order of preference bc omg they're all my babies i cant choose) they are:
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte: i would be lying if i said i didnt get into this for Rochester (idek blame toby stephens) but then i came to my senses because we all know Pilot is 10/10 the best character
The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde: AHH NO THIS IS MY FAVOURITE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS BEAUTIFUL?? just like, the first chapter, the first paragraph, is so damn poetic its my life ambition to write half as good as Wilde.
Villette by Charlotte Bronte: also amazing, Lucy Snowe is probably one of my favourite narrators in a book, if she had a spirit animal it would be grumpy cat
The Poetical Works of Keats:precious romantic lamb
Candide by Voltaire: this book is beautiful and candide is adorable but slightly useless, like a puppy or a pontmercy
The Visit of the Royal Physician by Per Olav Enquist: this is the book A Royal Affair is based on and its really beautifully written/translated - i seriously recommend it!!
North Child by Edith Pattou: holy crap this is a book i would and have read over and over, i think it's based on a norwegian folk tale and its about a girl who befriends a prince who's been cursed to turn into a polar bear during the day, it sounds strange and hilarious but thats why its amazing
Wuthering Heights (YES AGAIN)
Pride's Castle by Frank Yerby: i got this free off my mum's friend and i have yet to read it, but it looks good!
Cry of the Icemark by Stuart Hill: pretty sure this is my sister's book should probably give it back at some point.
The Sight by David Clement-Davies: i never finished this? i think i forgot where i had got to and then was too lazy to go back ahaha but i remember loving it so hopefully one day i'll see how it ends!
Spirit Walker by Michelle Paver: THIS BOOK SERIES IS SO AMAZING OMG IF YOU HAVENT PLEASE READ IT
Thanks for tagging me, abiii! i tag ubermelon, smouldermort, ron-weasley sch-ei-la and tidyhoarder and yeah anyone else who wants to do this! :D your colour is also blue! :D
