It was unseasonably rainy today, which made it seem perfect to snuggle up in bed with a classic.
My eyes flitted across the tempting cover of The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde, and the wit of Mr Wilde pulled me in.
The first chapter was beautiful, I found myself re reading lines just to enjoy the verbosity of it. My first chapter was so enjoyable, this may just be the first book that I read twice?!
I will be sure to share some quotes later - that will be a long post! - but in the meantime, you can hear about some other quotes from all sorts of books through the Book Depository's great Quotemark system....
Until then, Isme !
