Love for the old masters


I don't know if you know this, but I love love love books. However, I can't be bothered by all those chicklit/Twilight books *shivers*. My fingers (and my wallet) start to tingle when I stumble upon English literature, biographies and fantasy books (no Twilight is not proper fantasy). Call me weird but I want all the books to be from the same publisher. For example, my English literature reading books need to be from Penguin Classics. When, someday, I have enough money I want all of these books in the beautiful bonded version, so they won't have any reading signs. Then, there's another thing. Some of the books I own, I've got two version of: original language and the English. For example: The Neverending Story. You just need to have it in German. It's not that I can't read German, which I can very well, but I love having an English version of it as well. So, now you're thinking: where does she keep all these books?? Good question! My little house is faaar too little to house all of my books and my future wanna-haves!
As I told you I went shopping with Irene yesterday and I also picked up this book from Charles Dickens. He's definitely one of my all-time favourite authors, although I always need a dictionary when reading his books. David Copperfield is one of his most famous books! I often feel bad when people ask me if I have read this and that book and I have to tell them 'no'.
