Classic literature is on my mind a lot lately. All the talk about The Great Gatsby, which will never be a book I like, is part of it. Mostly though it is because I'm rereading so many in preparation to teach my High School English classes next year. So this month's Favorite Things list is dedicated to my favorite all time classic novels.
In making this list I thought of so many Shakespeare plays I wanted to add that I decided to do a whole list just for him. Coming in July...
What about you? Do you have any classic novels you love to reread? What are the ones you don't like at all?

I have always avoided Russian literature. The only one I've ever read is Anna Karenina.
And upon that and his experience in prison he wrote Crime and Punishment-it is a beautiful story. But, it does have a lot psychological theorizing and agony, so that may not be your thing.
