Dr. Jekyll and mr Hyde: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Good story, some bits i didn't quite get though. But this is my first 'classic' and one of the first books i read from that time period. I have to get used to the older English. I do reccomend the strory, it was well written!
The bodysnatcher: ⭐️⭐️
I found it harder to get through then dr. Jekyll and mr Hyde. The writing is the same style, but the story is harder to get trough. There are also a lof of unclearities.
The bottle imp: ⭐⭐⭐
I liked this story! I am always confused how people fall in love so easily and would risk their life for it though... it doesn't make sense to me. But i liked how they could live happily ever after :)
Weir of Hermiston: ⭐️⭐️
I didn't like that i couldn't understand a big part of this story. I had a lot of difficulties with the Scottish speak bubbles. I like that they showed the different speeches, though. But my English is not on the level of understanding that.
