'the words are spurting from my pen like... I don't know, complete the simile in your own way folks' , love how you are unintentionally funny and study in irony
I adore the beginning of the Dickens! I wonder if I were to hear it anew and had not learned it as a child whether I would find it as compelling? Perhaps not…
Since you expressed a willingness to buddy read one work of a 20th century American female, I dug out my copy of the 'Age of Innocence'. Would that be a decent candidate?
@@JoeSpivey02 Excellent! December it is. You and I both seem to dislike dragging books out too much. Would two weeks be reasonable for you? Maybe starting after the first week of December?
I am sorry about your tin ear when it comes to the symphonic opening of A Tale of Two Cities. :). Very enjoyable video. I really must try Carlyle. I don’t think I have ever read him except as quotes in other people’s works.
I would really like to hear one of your stories or essay on a topic of your choice, I cannot talk all the time. Some form of comments on a topic of your choice would be awesome as well, if you think it is suitable for your channel or better, if you are interested in making something new and off topic. Great video, certainly it was not what I have expected, but I have enjoyed. I do hope you are having wonderful time and that you managed to find time for yourself and activities you enjoy doing, besides reading.
Ammount of questions what do peoole like or do not like to eat, wear, dress, and how would they react to certain situations and which type of product would they prefer is beyond normal and I do think it is beyond limits of taste of market research. It is irrelevant, but it bothers me a lot lately. If you have a comment on that, it would be great.

Thank you! Sometimes the sayings simply don't come to mind!
I'm half way through Silas Marner. Loving it, but that's it for Victober because I already started other three, and I read very slowly 😢.

@@JoeSpivey02 Perfect! In fact, I was going to suggest either that or The House of Mirth!
How about in January? December is also a possibility-or anytime in 2025.
@@HannahsBooks Anytime after October would suit me! December sounds great!

Sorry about your rugby team not winning. I picked up Vanity Fair for $3 in a charity shop last week and will dive into it in the next few days.
I might just follow suit...
Great video, but I did stumble on the predicate "great", when referred to this Hitler fellow.
Almost certainly not! And if you did, that was a horrid, regrettable misstep! 🤣
Been trying to read The Turn Of The Screw by Henry James but it isn't going well. His verbosity makes Dickens look plain by comparison.
