It looks like the Classics Club is having another spin. Members can participate by making a numbered list of 20 of the books on their Classics Club lists and posting it by Sunday. On March 20, the Classics Club will pick a number, and that determines which of the books on your list to read by Saturday, April 30.
So, here’s my list for the spin:
- The Aenied by Virgil
- The Castle of Otranto by Horace Walpole
- The Mayor’s Wife by Anna Katherine Green
- Much Dithering by Dorothy Lambert
- Rhododendron Pie by Margery Sharp
- Music in the Hills by D. E. Stevenson
- We by Yevgeny Zemyatin
- Sleeping Murder by Agatha Christie
- Grand Hotel by Vicki Baum
- Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
- The Dead Secret by Wilkie Collins
- The Return of the Native by Thomas Hardy
- Merkland, A Story of Scottish Life by Margaret Oliphant
- Go Tell It on the Mountain by James Baldwin
- The Moorland Cottage by Elizabeth Gaskell
- The Moonspinners by Mary Stewart
- Isa’s Ballad by Magda Szabo
- A Double Life by Karolina Pavlova
- The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas
- The Saga of Gosta Berling by Selma Lagerlof
If you choose to participate, good look on getting a book you enjoy!
What? Me Read? 
I love the title Much Dithering!
Yes, isn’t it great?
A very interesting selection; so much so that, regardless of the spin, you’ll be bound to read something interesting! I’ve read only a few of the lighter entries; of these Rhododendron Pie was my favorite, although I also liked Much Dithering. It’s been years and years since I last read it, but I also have good memories of Mary Stewart’s The Moonspinners.
The Moonspinners is a reread for me.
I loved The Moonspinners, Sleeping Murder and The Three Musketeers. The Moorland Cottage is a nice quick read too. Good luck!
Oh, good. I hope I get one of them. Good luck to you, too!
I loved Grand Hotel although it isn’t a quick read. I hope you enjoy whatever you get.
Thanks!
Oh, a Christie, a Baldwin AND Rhododendron Pie! I’m not sure if I read Sleeping Murder or not (it sounds a bit familiar). I was debating between buying this Baldwin and Giovanni’s Room, but got the latter as a prize so, that’s the one on my list. As for Rhododendron Pie… just lovely! Good Luck!
Thanks!
I read and loved The Return of the Native quite recently so I’ll cross my fingers for you to get that, I also enjoyed We for the interest of seeing a book that predated and influenced both Brave New World and 1984. Whatever you get, I hope it’s one you enjoy!
I may have read The Return of the Native a long time ago, but I don’t remember it. I haven’t read We, so that should be interesting.
