When you are twenty-something, married, while enjoying the stand-stillness of life; there is nothing better than to indulge in reading and with all these challenges that Preeths seems to dig up, I am more than happy to follow suit.. amen!
Being reputed as the impatient reader, I remember having taken the whole summer vacation to read a classic. I would at times give way for a tinkle digest to replace 'wuthering heights'. However, it wasnt until I was running short of time, juggling from one text book to another, that I had secretly devoured the Jane Austen-s between study breaks.
Been a while since I read a classic and considering I already have a long list of books to be completed this year, which seems to be piling, I am adding three classics to my 2009 challenge. So here goes -
Anne of Green Gables - L.M.Montgomery
Mansfield Park - Jane Austen
The Diary of Anne Frank
so, whats your list?

lol ...welcome to the world ofclassics :) i think we both are finding time only now to pursue old interests :)
Thanks for joining the classics challenge! I really loved The Diary of Anne Frank. After you've finished reading that, check out Miep Gies memoir, "Anne Frank Remembered" it is an interesting companion piece to Anne's diary.
@Preeths : I know! i wish the fervor keeps up
@Trish : Thanks for dropping by. I will keep the memoir in mind.
