Classics Spin #7!

Cover for BeowulfI have enjoyed the Classics Club spins so much that I’ve decided to participate again in Classics Spin #7! In these spins, members of the Classics Club post a selection of 20 books from their Classics Club List, then the Classics Club picks a number on the slated day, and you read that book within the next couple of months. Unfortunately, this time, the Classics Club post will be battling with my next post for Literary Wives, both due October 6. I will post my Literary Wives review on the 6th and post my review for whatever the spin book is on the 7th. I usually don’t do what the spin advises and post my books by category of how much I look forward to them, but this time, what the heck. The spin number is announced next Monday.

  1. Glad you’ve enjoyed it enough to do it again! I wonder if I should try, given how the last one didn’t quite work out for me…it could work if I make a list of only books that I absolutely want to read. You are brave for putting some books on there that you dread.

    1. Yes, that might be the way to go about it. On the first spin, I totally ignored their recommendation and just put up ones I wanted to read. On the second spin, I didn’t categorize them the way they suggested, although I think some of my choices were ones I wasn’t as eager to read as others. Definitely put up the ones you want to read soon!
