It’s time to participate in another Classics Club spin. If you want to participate, post a numbered list of 20 books from your Classics Club list by Sunday, July 21. On that date, the club will announce a number, which determines which book you read for the spin. Then you try to read the book and post a review by September 22.
So, here’s my list for the spin:
- Les Misérables by Victor Hugo
- Hero and Leander by Christopher Marlowe
- The Passenger by Ulrich Alexander Boschwitz
- Cecilia, Memoirs of an Heiress by Frances Burney
- The Tavern Knight by Rafael Sabatini
- Love’s Labour’s Lost by William Shakespeare
- Our Mutual Friend by Charles Dickens
- The Methods of Lady Walderhurst by Frances Hodgson Burnett
- Merkland, A Story of Scottish Life by Margaret Oliphant
- The Deepening Stream by Dorothy Canfield Fisher
- Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl by Harriet Jacobs
- Tis Pity She’s a Whore by John Ford
- The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas
- The Princess of Cleves by Madame de La Fayette
- The Methods of Lady Walderhurst by Frances Hodgson Burnett
- Love’s Labour’s Lost by William Shakespeare
- Merkland, A Story of Scottish Life by Margaret Oliphant
- Our Mutual Friend by Charles Dickens
- The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas
- The Tavern Knight by Rafael Sabatini
What? Me Read? 
You’ve got the Sabatini in twice. Must be very keen to read it, haha. Thanks for organising another spin. I shall be taking part.
Not necessarily. I have several in twice because I only have 14 books left in my list to read.
Ah I see. Sorry. I still have loads including some I rather wish I hadn’t added now but alas, too late:)
Good luck with the spin. I think I read the Shakespeare, but even if I didn’t, I think I saw a production of it on stage a long time ago.
That was probably fun.
Interesting list, especially the Burney who I hadn’t heard of until recently and am now very keen to read; hope you get a good one!
I read another by her and I thought, for her era, it was fairly easy to read.
Whew. You’ve got some wonderful books on your list, especially Les Misérables and The Three Musketeers. I have twenty books left to read on my list, but I purposefully chose to repeat the ten I most want to read. I’ll publish my list tomorrow.
I do that, too. I read The Three Musketeers years ago. However, I haven’t read Les Mis.
That’s an interesting list, I’ve only read the Shakespeare. I would really like to read Merkland though.
I don’t know how available it will be, but I have it on her complete works online. I would much rather have a hardcopy book, so if I get it, I’ll look for one.
I have not read any books on your list, but it seems to be quite a variety of interesting books. Since I am late with comments I now know the number, 17. I hope you are happy to read Merkland, A Story of Scottish Life by Margaret Oliphant, of which I don’t know anything. I will await your review.
OK
