Happy Tuesday! Today’s TTT topic is modern day classics — contemporary books that will one day be recognized as classic pieces of literature. Honestly, I am just not feeling this topic so I am going in another direction. Shocking, I know. I am going with books that are based on or inspired by classics, ones I have read (denoted with an asterisk) and those that I’d like to. Let me know if you would read any of these. Sorry/not sorry for all the Jane Austen-inpired books.
