You can recommend more than one so I have a smaller selection but I just want to know what everyone else thinks. Also, try to pick ones without boring beginnings because if they’re boring at first, it’ll be hard for me to move on. Thanks so much!

Your Favorite Classic Book’s?
ok so i sold my old books to an old book store so i could get the money to buy new books, the lady gave me $120 store credit.
all the books are second hand and i’m sure i could find heaps that i want, but it would take years to go through them all, the store is like a maze (my mum and i even got lost in there the first time) and its the biggest secondhand book store in Victoria, Australia.
so my question is could you give me some names of old books that you loved and think i would like, today i’m going there to get David Copperfield by Charles Dickens, i love adventure books, romance, drama, at the moment i’m sick of fantasy.
thank you.

Your Favourite Classic?
I’m looking for some new classics to read. I’ve read all of Jane Austen’s, a number of Thomas Hardy’s and Charles Dickens’.
My favourite of these are:
Pride & Prejudice
Emma
The Trumpet Major
The Mayor of Casterbridge
Bleak House
David Copperfield
So what’s your favourite classic? What would you recommend to me? Anything from the well-known to the obscure. Sell me the story and make me want to read it! Please not Jane Eyre or Little Women, I can’t stand the way they are written.
Thank you in advance!
