Searching...

Książki Które Kiedyś Kategorycznie...

Książki to nie są czyjeś rzeczy, to są świadectwa rozumu.
Książki, które czytasz, pozwalają zajrzeć ci do głowy i zobaczyć myśli,
uczucia, intencje, potrzeby emocjonalne.

Jeśli czytasz namiętnie to znaczy, że tym właśnie jesteś.
Jesteś autorem swoich lektur i one zawsze cię zdradzą!!!


Anna Janko, "Dziewczyna z zapałkami"



Listy, wyzwania, zestawienia można mnożyć. Nie mam ambicji, żeby zaliczyć wszystkie dzieła zaprezentowane poniżej dla samego faktu odhaczenia na liście, ale skoro ktoś kiedyś uznał to za klasykę, to dlaczego by nie skorzystać z inspiracji?

Nie jestem typowym molem książkowym. Nie pochłaniam nieprzeciętnych ilości książek, nie mam do nich nabożnego stosunku, nie wącham ich, nie głaszczę kartek i nie wsłuchuję się w ich szelest. Książki są po to, by skłonić mnie do refleksji i zapewnić dobrą rozrywkę, ale mogą też ładnie wyglądać na półce:)

Część z tych książek przeczytałam już tak dawno temu, że napisanie opinii byłoby jedynie fikcją literacką. Dlatego też chcę do nich wrócić (i dlatego nie zaznaczyłam ich jako przeczytanych).
Zachciało mi się zebrać kilka ciekawszych list w jednym miejscu, by w wolnej chwili posmakować klasyki i rzucić sobie samej wyzwanie.
Pod każdym z ośmiozdjęciowych zestawów będę w miarę możliwości umieszczać linki do moich opinii. Mam nadzieję, że wkrótce pojawi się tu coś więcej niż piękne okładki :)

Niektóre książki w zestawieniach się powtarzają.

Inspiracja pochodzi stąd:
