*doesn't like studying literature* How did these books ever come to be considered "classics"???? 😕

Which ones, Hobbit?
All of them...Jane Eyre, Far From the Madding Crowd, Tess of the D'Urbervilles, The Story of an African Farm, Tom Jones, and nearly every other book hailed as a classic. I have to read the summaries for my English Lit studies, and those summaries are quite enough, thank you! I also read The Scarlet Letter the whole way through once in preparation for the American Lit class. I want a refund. Along with a free brainwash.
Friendly advice to everyone: Don't read these stories, ever. Unless you're into that sort of stuff, which I hope nobody is. It's repulsive. And generally inappropriate.
Jane Eyre? I studied it to death (and wrote three essays on it afterwards) and ended up loving it. Definitely deserves its title as a classic as it is very well written and shines a light on the society of the time. There is also the fact that I am into darker fiction and Jane Eyre fits that very well.
