I'm seeing folks participating in this spin and I am ambivalent about joining it. I used to read the classics for high school/college, but I don't know if I want to commit to 50 classic books at this stage in my life. I gravitate toward more "fluff" reads. Have fun with it and hope you get a reread or one you are anxious for!
ReplyDeleteIt's fun, but I have to admit, I am probably not going to finish this challenge all the way. Lol. I have found a few new favorites though, like Ethan Frome!
DeleteI loved The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, so hope you get that one! Just can't seem to read One Hundred Years of Solitude though.. have tried 2 or 3 times and just can't get beyond page 50! Good luck with the spin!
ReplyDeleteWe have 3 in common on this spin list. I didn't check the numbered order, but it would be funny if we were reading them at the same time. So many good titles I didn't think of, that I see here. The Blind Assassin, The Poisonwood Bible, The Secret Garden. Good choices.
