It’s time for another Classics Club Spin!
What is the spin?
It’s easy. Create a post before this Sunday, November 15th listing twenty books of your choice that remain “to be read” on your Classics Club list [or create your first ever Classic’s Club list].
This is your Spin List! See mine below.
On Sunday November 16th the Classic Club will post a number from 1 through 20. The challenge is to read whatever book falls under that number on your Spin List by January 3, 2027.
The Classic Club will check their blog post on the January 3, 2027 to see who made it the whole way and finished their spin book! So, do remember to link your review post to The Classic Club post.
Add the link for your spin list here and join in the discussion.

Thank you to The Classics Club for hosting this!
My list
I have decided to use the same list I used for the last club spin (No.45). I have not replaced no.18 The Secret Garden the winning title. If that number comes up I will simply give myself free rein to read one of the other books on the list that appeals to me. What’s the likelihood that will happen? Surely it’s unlikely – I think so – but it would be fun.
