Oh I like the Spin. Even though I haven't joined the CC yet. You have a good list ... though various seem dark or sad but that's the breaks. I especially love that you put #13 on your list. Yay. I'd reread that one with you ... I'm rooting for the Spin to be #13 but I'm okay if it's any of the others. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteHi Susan, if it's 13 we can make that happen! And if it's not we can plan Out of Africa for this summer. I'd like to start hitting my classics list more and then the library holds come in. Vicious cycle. We will know Sunday which book I get.
DeleteI've read quite a a few of yours and have the Muriel Spark on my list, as well. I hope you get Lost Horizon. I really enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteThat’s a great list! I’ve read quite a few of those, and some are my favorites. Enjoy your chosen book!
ReplyDeleteGood list! I've read And Then There Were None, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Ethan Frome, Mrs. Dalloway, and The Great Gatsby. Of those, I think I'd re-read Ethan Frome. Hotel du Lac is one that I've always intended to read.
ReplyDeleteI've read half your list - you have some great reads ahead of you!
