It’s time for the fourth night of Hanukkah, and our fourth giveaway!
The fourth night is usually when I make more latkes, probably spicy sweet potato, and am thinking that toasting marshmallows over the menorot might make for an excellent dessert options.
Today we have a collection of soft, warm, fuzzy, and squishy items to create your own reading space.
Ready?
We have a It’s Book O’Clock pillow, and that’s my favorite time of day, really.
There is also a Pride and Prejudice infinity scarf in ivory from LiteratiClub. It measures 60″ (150-153 cm) inches around and 14″-15″ (36-38 cm) inches wide, and is made of cotton-poly-rayon blend jersey. It is so soft and really snuggly.
There are also Yellow Library Card Print socks and an Alice In Wonderland tote bag, both from Out of Print Clothing.

P&P or the Anne of Green Gables series.
I am going to go with Jane Eyre!
Persuasion, I did this for Enish Literature O Level and was fortunate enough to have a brilliant english teacher who helped us see the commentary on manners and the pokes at vrious kinds of people. She also played us a BBC Radio Four series dramatising Pesuasion. And completely off topic for a fundrasing event she walked across the school hall stage on her hands, particularly impressive as she had long hair which she wore loose!
Persuasion is my favorite Jane Austen and my go-to if I’m in the mood for a classic.
You can’t get me to drop my first love…. fantasy.
My favorite classic is persuasion!
Jane Eyre and the Little House books.
Elizabeth Peters’ Crocodile on the Sandbank
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen and North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell.
Anne of Green Gables!
Sherlock Holmes
My favorite sci fi classic is Kindred by Octavia Butler.
My favorite classic, another hard choice but I think the Narnia books.
My favorite classic is The Scarlet Letter.
Definitely pride and prejudice!
I love Pride and Prejudice.
I love Pride and Prejudice, it’s one of my favorite romances.
My fav classic is ‘My Antonia’. There’s something about how Willa Cather describes the prairie that apeals to me.
Lord of Scoundrels is a classic of Historical romance. That book makes me so happy.
Anne of Green Gables is my all time favourite classic, with The Princess Bride not far behind. Anne wins on nostalgia points, though.
My favorite classic is Dracula.
I love this theme. Pride and Prejudice gets my vote. To be followed closely by Persuasion. Perfect for this time of year.
Jane Eyre, The Secret Garden, and Rebecca. I especially like re-read the part where Jane tells Rochester she is a person. Her sense of agency Was awesome to read as a shy teen.
Pride and Prejudice. Always.
Persuasion and Pride & Prejudice are comfort reads for me
Jane Austen ( exact work depending on mood)
Definitely Jane Eyre! Despite, or maybe because of, being a librarian, I own very few books, but this is one I’ll always keep a copy of.
Pride and Prejudice is still one of my favorite books of all time.
Persuasion, which beats our Pride and Prejudice by the smallest amount.
Jane Eyre is my favorite gothic romance classic!
Favorite classic children’s book (going with “children’s literature” as a genre) is probably The Secret Garden.
Also I am bookmarking this page so when people ask me next year what gifts I want and can just tell them these things.
Black Beauty!
My favorite children’s classic has to be The secret princess or Sara Crewe. I end up reading it almost every year.
My favorite classic is Persuasion, which is odd, because I don’t like in contemporary romances when exes get back together, but Jane Austen does it to perfection. ❤️❤️
Lord of Scoundrels
I don’t know if it’s really my absolute favorite, but I noticed the George MacDonald fantasy collection when I was organizing my Kindle last night. The Princess and the Goblin gives me warm fuzzy feelings.
Happy Hanukkah!
What fun gifts …. Thanks for the chance to win. My favorite classic is actually a romance, The Scarlet Pimpernel.
Pride and Prejudice!
Don’t know if it’s considered a classic – I love One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez on so many levels. Excellent women characters, magical realism, an acute understanding of a part of history that our country played a huge role in and about which we know very little. Plus my copy was given to me by a man I will always love although we were not able to be together on an ongoing basis.
My favorite is so hard to choose. I think I will go with Three Musketeers by Dumas. It’s a series of fun adventures held together by intrigue and it stands up well to re-reading.
