Classics Club Spin #38



It's that time again!  Time for Lady Fortuna to spin her wheel of literary destiny and determine my next read!  In other words, Classics Club Spin #38 is coming!

This will be my second time to participate in a spin.  My previous spin book has been completed, but not within the original time parameters, as Lady Fortuna had even grander plans for me: an unexpected  cross-country move!  I have several book reviews to get uploaded here, but for now, I'm excited to jump into a new spin book.  So, without further ado...

Here is my Spin List:

1. Cold Comfort Farm - Stella Gibbons
2. The Woodlanders - Thomas Hardy
3. Gulliver's Travels - Jonathan Swift
4. The Mill on the Floss - George Eliot
5. Vile Bodies - Evelyn Waugh
6. Kipps - H.G. Wells
7. Confessions of an English Opium Eater - Thomas De Quincey
8. A Tree Grows in Brooklyn - Betty Smith
9. From the Earth to the Moon - Jules Verne
10. The Bride of Lammermoor - Sir Walter Scott
11. David Copperfield - Charles Dickens
12. Recollections of the Lakes and the Lake Poets - Thomas De Quincey
13. The Beautiful and the Damned - F. Scott Fitzgerald
14. The Pilgrim's Progress - John Bunyan
15. Excellent Women - Barbara Pym
16. The Lark - E. Nesbit
17. The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner - James Hogg
18. Piers Ploughman - William Langland
19. The Monarch of the Glen - Compton Mackenzie
20. The Golden Ass - Apuleius

Update:  THE WHEEL HAS SPOKEN!  I will be reading The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner by James Hogg.

  1. A fantastic list! All the good stuff. To think old Apuleius has endured so long. . .
