Here it seems like we just had a Classics Club Spin and we’re having another one, #37! What is the spin, anyway? Well, if you are a member of the Classics Club you have posted a list of a number of classics you would like to read by a certain deadline, set by yourself. To participate, simply create a numbered list of 20 of the books on your list and post it by Sunday, April 21. On Monday, the club will post a number, and that number determines which book you will read for the spin. Post a review of that book by Sunday, June 2. It’s as simple as that. And don’t forget to add a link to that post in the Comments for the spin post on June 2nd.
With no further ado, here is my list. I no longer have 20 books left on it, so I have to repeat some:
- Our Mutual Friend by Charles Dickens
- Les Misérables by Victor Hugo
- The Deepening Stream by Dorothy Canfield Fisher
- The Book of Lamentations by Rosario Castellanos
- The Methods of Lady Walderhurst by Frances Hodgson Burnett
- The Passenger by Ulrich Alexander Boschwitz
- Merkland, A Story of Scottish Life by Margaret Oliphant
- The Prophet’s Mantle by E. Nesbit
- Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl by Harriet Jacobs
- The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas
- Cecilia, Memoirs of an Heiress by Frances Burney
- The Princess of Cleves by Madame de La Fayette

So many titles I’ve never heard of from writers I know! Hope you get a good one!
Me, too!
I haven’t read any of these! I hope you get The Methods of Lady Walderhurst just because I’d like to know more about it. The title doesn’t sound like it’s a children’s book.
I don’t think it is. She wrote quite a few books for adults.
I’m unfamiliar with lots of these, so whatever you read, I’ll be watching out for your review to see if I should try to put it on my list. Best of luck to you! My list just went live on my blog today.
Thanks!
I see you got The Prophet’s Mantle. I don’t know it at all, but I hope it turns out to be a good one!
Me, too! It sounds sort of religious. I hope not!
