Classics Challenge
Trish from Trish’s Reading Nook is hosting the Classics Challenge. How can I resist a challenge from Trish??!!! Visit the Challenge blog for rules. Basically, read five classics and one bonus “soon to be a classic” between July 1st and December 31st, 2008. I hope to cross post all of my choices with other challenges. I’m leaving a couple spots open. We’ll see what takes the spot.
- Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy
- To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
- Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck
- A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith
- Uncle Tom’s Cabin by Harriett Beacher Stowe
- Bonus book: Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides
I’m glad you couldn’t resist.
I don’t blame you for wanting to start Anna Karenina right now–isn’t that around 800 pages? Goodness gracious. I hope you like To Kill a Mockingbird–I suspect you will.
