About Me

Welcome to Fanda Classiclit, an online journal where I post my feelings and thoughts on Classics Literature!

 

Who is Fanda?

 

• I am an Indonesian woman with reading passion.
• English is my second language, and I have never read or studied classic literature BEFORE 2009.
• To Kill a Mockingbird was my first classic, but after that, I could not stop reading classics.
• Until 2011 I have read only Indonesian translation of classics literature, until I braved myself to read an English copy of A Christmas Carol in December 2011 (consulting dictionary in almost every sentence!).
• I have a full-time job as a Business Assistant in a private office, and in leisure time I read and blog.
• Besides classics, from time to time I also enjoy historical fiction and popular fiction (mostly crime/detective).

 

 

What Can You Find at Fanda Classiclit?

 

• Well, mostly my thoughts (reviews) on classics I have read.
• Émile Zola is my favorite classic author, so expect posts about him every now and then… :)
• Besides reviews, I also manage two blog features: Classic Character and Author Birthday.
• I also love reading challenges, and occasionally I post bookish memes, tags, or just sharing MY bookish life.
• Oh, and have I told you about #Zoladdiction – a Zola reading event I host every year? Come here next April, and you’ll know how I love Zola! :)

 

 

Happy reading! And you’re welcome to stay and read as much as you want!

 

Love,

Fanda
