Happy Tuesday everyone! Welcome to the Top Ten Tuesday now hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's topic is Books Written Before I Was Born (submitted by Davida Chazan @ The Chocolate Lady's Book Review Blog). I've decided to focus my list this week to Books On My TBR Written Before I Was Born. Without further ado, here we go in alphabetical order:
Batman: The Killing Joke by Alan Moore
The Color Purple by Alice Walker
The Crystal Cave (Arthurian Saga #1) by Mary Stewart
Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency (Dirk Gently #1) by Douglas Adams
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (Blade Runner #1) by Philip K. Dick
The Outlaws of Sherwood by Robin McKinley
Sherlock Holmes vs. Dracula (The Further Adventures of Sherlock Holmes) by Loren D. Estleman
Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut
I've never read that Crystal cave series. Was always curious. I did read Do Androids dream a while back but I don't actually remember a lot about it...
ReplyDeleteThe McKinley series looks good too.
Hopefully I'll be able to get around to them soon.
DeleteI need to read Flowers for Algernon :D Happy reading! :D My TTT https://readwithstefani.com/books-written-before-i-was-born-the-classics-edition/
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, Stefani!
DeleteThe Color Purple was such a good read!
ReplyDeleteMy post.
One of these days!
DeleteThe Color Purple! That movie broke me and the book was just as good.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the movie either - some day I'll have to get to both.
DeleteI hope you enjoy all these!

Thanks!
DeleteAh, Douglas Adams is a favorite of mine. As is Philip K. Dick. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHere is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
Thanks, Aymee.
DeleteFlowers for Algernon! I remember reading that book in school!
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised that we didn't have to in my school.
DeleteI read The Color Purple years ago and loved it!
ReplyDeleteGood to know!
DeleteOhhh. The Killing Joke is still one of the best Joker focused graphic novels in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to try it!
DeleteI wanted to include The Color Purple, but it wasn't old enough for me. It left an impression though. I almost included Flowers for Algernon. That book was heartbreaking.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to prepare myself for the both of them!
DeleteOoh! Batman the Killing Joke is an awesome book! Great list!
ReplyDeleteHere’s my TTT!

I'm looking forward to it that's for sure!
DeleteI've never read The Outlaws of Sherwood, but Robin McKinley's The Hero and the Crown made such an impression on me when I was a young teen.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe I've never read any of her books. Soon though!
