Such a nice list. The Count of Monte Cristo and Les Miserables are on my top five all time favorites list, both are terrific. North and South, The House of Mirth, and A Room with a View were also enjoyable.

I've gone for the ones I really want to read but for some reason never get round to.

The Count of Monte Cristo is one of my top favorites too.

Pink | 5491 comments Ohh so many good choices! I did much the same with my list, picking things I just haven't gotten around to, but really want to tackle.

April Munday | 276 comments Villette's a great book. It's surprisingly underrated, probably because it's a bit of a hard read, but it's the best thing Charlotte Bronte wrote.
