Classics Club, Spin #40

It’s time for another Classics Club spin.

This is the Classics Club’s 40th CC Spin…I wonder how many I have participated in. At least 2/3rd maybe even more, I'd guess.

What is a CC Spin?

• Simply pick twenty books that you’ve got left to read from a list of 20 classic book titles you'd still like to read.
• Post that list, numbered 1-20, on your blog before Sunday, 16th February.
• A number from 1-20 will be announced. 
• Read that book by 11th April.

Here is my list of  Twenty Classics for Spin #40-- Winter 2025

1. Something by Dickens
2. A Room with a View by E.M. Forster
3. The Tenet of Wildfell Hall by Anne Bronte
4. Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams by Sylvia Plath*

*Books I own. I'M HOPING TO FINALLY GET THEM READ AND OFF MY LIST!

And the winning number is...

4 ... oops my e-reader is faltering so I will select a print book I own, probably The Brothers Karamazov, if it dies so I can't read the Sylvia Plath essays and short stories. 

So I will see if I can find on my e-reader: Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams by Sylvia Plath. A collection of short stories and essays.
