Daddy-Long-Legs
May 5, 2009 – 11:10 amOnce again, I’m determined not to buy books but rather to rent them. No use spending much money on a book I’ll only ever read once. So I’m very happy to have discovered Public Bookshelf. After quickly reading a seriously bad novel I decided to go for one with a high rating. The first to come up was Daddy-Long-Legs by Jean Webster. Wow! This has to be one of my favourite novels now! I couldn’t stop reading and was entertained not only by the plot but even more by the humourous writing style. I seriously wish I could write like that. By the way, I was honestly surprised to find out this was written in 1912.
