Public Domain Readers discussion

Each month we will read a public domain book in a certain genre, about a particular subject, or by an specific author. Report which book or story you've decided to read. Feel free to discuss what you're reading and the author's writing style. Don't forget to leave a review of your selected work.

If you don't have much time, please consider reading a short story.

This month's focus is to read a book with a color in the title.


Here is a rainbow of ideas:
R- The Red Thumb Mark, The Masque of the Red Death
O- Memoirs of Orange Jacobs, The Orange Girl
Y- The Yellow Horde, The Island of Yellow Sands
G- Adventures of Mr. Verdant Green, The Green Mouse
B- The Blue Tower, The Land of the Blue Flower
I- The Purple Cloud, Riders of the Purple Sage
V- Violet Forster's Lover, The Third Violet

And of course, there are many other colors to choose from. I will be reading The Scarlet Pimpernel for a different group's reading challenge towards the first of the month.

The Scarlet Pimpernel is also on my to-read list. I am so excited to read it in June. Even though I haven't finished reading last month's book yet.

I just finished reading The Scarlet Pimpernel. It is such a good story. I can definitely see why it is still a popular story today.

Sawako, have you had a chance to start it yet?

I finished reading it, too! Yes, I agree with you. And its audiobook is good too. I like this type of stories. I am so happy that I read it with you.

I've started reading The Window at the White Cat. I'm really enjoying what I've read so far.

I finished reading The Window at the White Cat by Mary Roberts Rinehart. It was a very entertaining story. I loved the 'voice' of the main character. The reason for the mystery was political corruption. I never got bored with the story. I highly recommend the book.

And I already added The Window at the White Cat to my "to-read" list.
