I recently saw a tweet on twitter by Goodreads and got deeply inspired to post this new topic, because I find the answers so interesting.

What's the last thing that left you sentranced?

I have no specific examples but often times Charles Dickens sentences leave me this way. On many an occasion I have found myself rereading sentences in his novels, not because I didn't understand but because the sentence was so beautiful that once just wasn't going to be enough.

Shakespeare has that effect on me, when I read his work It's a constant discovery. I decided once to take a highlighter and highlight the things I thought were amazing or quotable and to my shock I ended up highlighting most of the book! Perhaps prose just speaks to me... ;)
