Watership Down / Richard Adams
I had a little trouble with this weeks topic – I basically chose five of my favourite books that I hope may be considered classics in the future. I don’t know if they will be or are considered classics. I’m not really sure. Anyway what book do you think will be considered a classic in the future? I hope you are all having a wonderful day and I will see you next time.

I can definitely see Watership Down sticking around. As long as it doesn’t get lost or confused with the Redwall books…

Redwall is a long, middle-grade to ya, series by Brian Jacques that deals with anthropomorphic animals. I read quite a few in highschool…

I consider it a classic too but I’d thought I’d include it on this list anyway! The Handmaid’s Tale definitely deserves it too! Thank you 🙂
