Classics Club Spin #32

 

UPDATE:  THE SPIN NUMBER CHOSEN WAS   ,   SO I WILL BE READING THE TENANT OF WILDFELL HALL, BY ANNE BRONTE!

****************************************************************************

It’s time for another Classics Club “Spin”  and I’d really like to participate this time around. I don’t always finish my choices in the time slot allotted, but I always enjoy the challenge.

Here’s how it works:

It’s easy. At your blog, before next Sunday 11th Decmber, 2022, create a post that lists twenty books of your choice that remain “to be read” on your Classics Club list.

This is your Spin List.

You have to read one of these twenty books by the end of the spin period.

On Sunday 11th, December, we’ll post a number from 1 through 20. The challenge is to read whatever book falls under that number on your Spin List by the 29th January, 2023.

Here is my list of 20 choices this time:

  1. Adams, Douglas:  The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy 
  2. Agee, James:  A Death in the Family
  3. Arkell, Reginald:  Old Herbaceous
  4. Austin, Mary Hunter:  The Land of Little Rain
  5. Beston, Henry:  The Northern Farm: A Glorious Year on a Small Maine Farm
  6. Bronte, Anne:  The Tenant of Wildfell Hall
  7. Bronte, Charlotte:  The Green Dwarf
  8. Buck, Pearl S:  Sons
  9. Burnett, Frances Hodgson:  Little Lord Fauntleroy
  10. Camus, Albert:  The Stranger
  11. Conrad, Pam:  My Daniel
  12. Dickens, Charles:  The Chimes
  13. Dinesen, Isak:  Winter Tales
  14. Dostoyevsky, Fyodor:  White Nights
  15. Eliot, George: Adam Bede
  16. Irving, Washington:  Old Christmas
  17. Proust, Marcel:  Days of Reading
  18. Rushdie, Salman:  Luka and the Fire of Life
  19. Shakespeare, William:  Hamlet
  20. Shute, Nevil:  What Happened to the Corbetts?

This should be a very nice reading challenge to take on during the holidays and into the New Year. I’m so happy to be back to my reading, and to my Classics Club reading again!

    Oh I hope you’d get The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, it’s one of my most favorites of all time. The Chimes is such a good choice too, while we are still on the holiday’s mood.
    Good luck anyway, and have fun! 😊

    I am glad your #6 was The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, and I hope you will write a post about it, because I have been wondering what it is like.
