Classic Fiction Book Reviews
Are you looking for a tried and true classic? Novels don't become classics without a reason. These novels include some the the best books ever written. Although a few classics seem like a chore to read, others provide some of the most pleasureable reading experiences imaginable and these are the classics that rise to the top of my ratings. The following reviews are listed in order of their overall rating based on my highly biased rating criteria.
If you find these reviews helpful, support this site by buying your books from the convenient links on this site. Most reviews have three book cover images with links to my favorite on-line booksellers. The first book cover image is usually linked to used books at Powell's which are sold at a huge discount, if available. The second and third book cover images are for new books at Amazon and Amazon UK. All three book sellers offer excellent prices on new books with free shipping on qualifying orders. There are also convenient book search boxes here.
