The first book (or should I say the last book) on the list is The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne. I'm not ashamed to say I've never heard of this one. I decided to make the purchase of the first novel in the series a little more personal than buying it on-line so I went out to my local Chapters, signed up for an irewards card (something tells me I'll be buying a few more books) and picked out a nice new copy of The Scarlet Letter.
I don't think I would be reading this book without the Century Club Reader Challenge.
It looks old.
It looks to be written in English that isn't what I'd hear on television.
This should be interesting.

I've downloaded this book for free through www.manybooks.net. FYI, probably most of the classics will be available in various forms. You're not actually planning on purchasing all these books, are you Perry? There's something called a LIBRARY which lets you borrow books for free. Just no jerking off on them.
ReplyDeleteSo much for this being a family show.
ReplyDeleteWhen have YOU ever run a family show? Do you think that just because you've started up a hoity-toity literary book club blog that you're above your usual brand of humour?
