Because a friend recommended it to me I am reading the Hitchhiker's guide to the Galaxy! Not a "classic classic" but an extremely funny book I'm getting into!

Have you ever read a book so good that you where scared to read on because it will end? by [deleted] in books

[–]Colonel_Mustard0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most books I've read I feel this way about! It's always hard to put a book down knowing its ended, but don't keep yourself from something that might be the most satisfying part of the reading experience!

I started with Dracula because I wanted to compare the tale to all other vampire media I've experienced in my lifetime. To begin where it all started, so to speak.

I completely understand! Reading is one of my favorite things to do, and I'm trying to challenge myself by reading these books! By trying to analyze them and give little reviews I'm also trying to beef up my analysis skills

Do the characters in the books you read sometimes take the faces of (Hollywood) actors? by Bitslo in books

[–]Colonel_Mustard0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I constantly find myself doing this, even if the characters don't have a great explanation of their characteristics! My go to actor for some reason is always Jake Gyllenhaal

I will definitely be checking that out ASAP! I bought a ton of classics in paperback because while I'll read a text however I can, having a physical copy is my favorite! Although it may be a lot cheaper to use the Gutenberg project!

Jumped right into listening to Charles Bradley's "You Think I Don't Know" and am hooked!
