Top 10 Classic Books for Beginners (Where to Start) | The Bookworm

Today I'll list 10 of my favorite classic books that are beginner friendly! Reading classic literature may look really intimidating, but worry not because on this list I'll recommend novels from thrillers to adventure and comedy that are interesting, fun, and easy to read.
Want to know which literary works made the list? Just watch my video!
There's a reason why some books pass the test of time and are considered "classics", but I know some books look heavy, long and anything but fun. This is why on this video I'm listing works that, despite written in the Victorian era (or even earlier than the 19th century!) are actually good, fun to read and are accessible to everyone.
If you've always heard names like Charles Dickens, Jane Austen and Conan Doyle and wandered whether they're ACTUALLY good - here's your chance to get a glimpse!

Bookworms, what are your favorite fun classic novels?

[@jtru0]

I just put the hound of the Baskervilles on my TBR 😉. Been trying to read some classics.

[@thebookworm6554]

Hope I contributed well to your list :)

[@madworld1962]

Definitely some great recommendations 😀👍

[@scp240]

A decent list, the Wodehouse books are loads of fun if you like that sort of thing. I’ll have to check out Three Men in a Boat it escaped my radar somehow. I’m reminded of the first classics that I read as a boy, particularly memorable were The Call of the Wild, Robinson Crusoe, All Quiet on the Western Front, The Metamorphosis, Of Mice and Men, and Animal Farm. I re-read these within the past few years some 40+ years later and they all were as good or better than I remembered.

I’m a Christie girl too but I enjoyed some of Holmes’ stories. I definitely plan to check out some of the Jeeves books!

[@iqbalmakda9359]

I'm glad I 've read them all and saw the ones made the silver screen and this was before I had a short attention span due to smart phones too.

[@TheLinguistsLibrary]

I absolutely love your classic mystery recs! Do you like Wilkie Collins?

[@thebookworm6554]

Thanks! I only read The Woman in White by Collins, but I have The Moonstone at home and it's on my TBR list.

[@Nixreads]

Haunting of Hill House was in my 2023 favourites video 😊❤

[@susaniacuone5758]

I've read nine of them but I'd not even heard of the Jerome K Jerome entry,😮 Three Men and a Dog.

[@thebookworm6554]

Oh, it's HILARIOUS!!!

[@ameerahalgohary]

I think I studied "Treasure Island" in school, too!
Are we from the same country? 😄

[@ameerahalgohary]

Looking forward to reading 1984, Animal Farm & Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde this year .. I put them in my TBR when I was planning my reading year

[@DarianTrinity]

According to her channel bio, she's from Germany

[@captainnolan5062]

I love the great Charles Dickens! I have read almost all of the books on this list and can recommend them highly. Why not add Dracula to the list?

[@thebookworm6554]

I don't find it on the same "easiness" level as the other...

[@marktyrrell8892]

Jerome K Jerome was a fantastic humorist, very funny but he could also be profound in some of his short stories. I think he's under-rated as a series commentator because of his amusing reputation.

[@rosenthal111]

i love this list so much and agree with them all! i love your accent and your hair too 😁 i would recommend anne of green gables and white nights for beginners. those are some i started with 🩷

[@smileytpb]

The most important thing is, that no one reads the abridged version of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde...

[@smileytpb]

kerfuffle :D

[@thebookworm6554]

Does it contain more than 3 words?

[@Nmber6]

3:04. Takes place in Missouri, not Mississippi.

[@numapompilius4313]

Eeh!
