Your Lucky Spin Number Is…

~ The Classics Club

If you joined the game last week, find number 13 on your CC Spin #34 List! That’s the CLASSIC you are challenged to read by 6th August 2023. 

We know it can be hard to stay on track and enthused about your Spin Book for the whole journey. We plan to provide support and encouragement to all our CC Spinners via twitter, fb, instagram and goodreads. We hope you can join us in cheering everyone on to finish another fabulous classics reading experience!

If you’re struggling with your book, let us know. We’ll do everything we can to help you through. Perhaps one of your new moderators has read it, or we can link you up with another Classics Clubber who has.

As always, the prize is the reading experience. 

What’s Next?

Tell us below what your number 13 title is:

  • Are you feeling thrilled, hesitant or ‘meh’ about your title?
  • Check out our ‘Reviews By Members’ page for other Classic Clubbers who may have read your book recently. They may be able to help you if you hit a speedhump in your reading.
  • Cheer on your fellow Clubbers.
  • Take a pic of your book and pop it on Instagram or twitter.
  • If you can — it would be fabulous if everyone posted about their Spin book by the 6th August.
  • Then check back here to share your experience and add your review to our ‘Reviews By Members’ page.

  2. Aargh! Yet again the Spin Gods have ferreted out the longest book on my list – The Betrothed by Alessandro Manzoni – all 720 pages of it! I think it’s safe to say my chances of finishing it by the deadline are somewhere between remote and zero…

      1. That’s good to hear! One of my blogging friends also thoroughly enjoyed reading this just a few months ago. I’m actually quite looking forward to it, although I very much doubt that I’ll meet the deadline since I always struggle with reading lengthy books over the summer when there’s so much sport on the TV and sunshine outside!

  4. For my spin, I got Elias Canetti “Auto-da-Fé”. It’s quite a large book and I just started about a hundred others (well, obviously only five but still) but I am sure I’ll manage by August.

  7. The Marble Faun by Nathaniel Hawthorne! I’ve been looking forward to reading this one for a long time, so much so that I actually bought a copy not too long ago in anticipation. Number 13 couldn’t have been more lucky for me!

  15. The Heart is a Lonely Hunter was #13 on my list. I am so surprised because it is also on my 20 Books of Summer. I never imagined it would be picked. Very happy about that.

  16. I’ll be reading Daisy Miller by Henry James! It wouldn’t have been one of my top picks, but it wouldn’t have been one of my bottom picks, either. We’ll see how it goes!
