1984 by George Orwell
Great Expectations by Charles Dickens
Count of Monte Cristo by Alexander Dumas
Dracula by Bram Stoker
Les Miserable by Victor Hugo
Some I read in print and listened to some on my ipod. I'm loving listening to some of them on the ipod because i can put it on and listen to it while I'm cooking in the kitchen. And sometimes I spend all day in the kitchen on the weekends which means i listen alot. And it frees up some of my "reading time" for reading other print materials. Win/win.

I love Les Miserable!
I've read all those books except for Dracula, and they were all excellent! I need to get back to reading...but by the end of the day I am just too pooped. It was nice talking to you last night, miss u lots :(
Remember this summer, Kas, we talked about Les Miserable? I've been meaning to talk to you about that....your HS class must have read the abridged version. That book was obnoxiously long. It had all these long, drawn out sections where the Andre Dumas would go off on an irrelevant tangent. Like 15 chapters on the battle of waterloo, and 5 chapters about the architecture of the sewer system on Paris. If I was going to do it again, I would read the abridged version for sure!!! It WAS good to talk to you yesterday. Love you and miss you!
