My favorite is Return of the Native by Thomas Hardy. I read it as a senior in high school and – at a time where everything about school was an absolute turn-off — this book blew me away. And I still love it.

Pride and Prejudice, it was the first book to have a major impact on me.

I couldn’t restrict myself to just one.

It’s not easy picking one Classic as my favourite; more than one had impacts on me: http://readinpleasure.wordpress.com/2012/08/13/the-classics-club-august-meme-question-1/

I kind of ‘cheated’ as well, by choosing a favourite book from each of the eras of classic literature!

For me it has to be Middlemarch – I must have read it six times at least but still find something new in it each time

Just posted mine – it’s pretty predictable if you’ve read my blog at all this year. I limited myself to those from this challenge so far.

Most of my favourite books are classics so it’s been quite tough to pick just one, but ‘Wuthering Heights’ will always be special to me.

I plan on linking later in the month but the first book that popped into my mind is Pride & Prejudice. It’s my all time favorite comfort read.
LikeLike
I linked, but leaving a comment as well–Wuthering Heights, since I was 13 and well before I even understood the novel (how I saw it then versus how I see it now is worlds apart). Going to read Juli’s link now so I can get another perspective on it! Thanks for the great meme. 🙂

Louisa May Alcott’s “Little Women” … a timeless classic 🙂

A lovely question to ponder, but it’s tricky to pin down a single answer. Today I’m drawn to The Mill on the Floss, but on another day I could be drawn somewhere else entirely.

I decided to pick something I’d never mentioned on my blog before — Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged… 😀

Yay! What a fun idea, and what a great first question. I have to admit to totally cheating on this one. I picked my favorite classic in various genres rather than just picking one. But hey, it gives me an excuse to talk about a bunch of books.
Here’s the link. It’s also on Mr. Linky.

A great question, it was hard to narrow it down to just one classic and my opinion might have changed by the time I finish my list! Just posted my link to the Mister Linky 🙂
