James’s comments from the #ClassicsCommunity 2021 Reading Challenge group.

Hey everyone - I’m James from Lancashire (North-West of England) and I’m so excited to be getting round to a lot of classics I’ve been meaning to read for ages this year! My all time favourite book is definitely Emma by Jane Austen :-)

I have just finished it this afternoon - just wow!

I’ve just finished the fourth part volume and I am absolutely hooked! How is everyone else finding it?

Emma is probably my favourite book of all time and I thought the most recent film adaptation was absolutely fabulous - I’m aiming to reread it for the umpteenth time during this isolation period!

I’m definitely looking to finish Anna Karenina in April - the first half of it really disappointed me but now I’m absolutely loving it. After that, I think I want to read Howard’s End and then maybe something by Joyce - either Ulysses or A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man.
