I Read Classical Literature

Since the weather is so crappy, I'm going to start rereading Epictetus's Discourses. I read it in college more than 40 years ago. It's about time I read him again.

I have read some of the books that I didn't read when I was young.
Call of the Wild, Kidnapped, Lord Jim, The Count of Monte Cristo and others. Even a couple Zane Grey novels. Most of these classics read just as well today as they did when they were written!

@cuddles1266 I read Kidnapped and it sequel Catriona for the first time recently. On a RLS kick, I also read Jekyll and Hyde. as someone recently said, learn something new and read an old book. There is a reason they are classics.
