I’m a part of The Classic’s Club, a club designed to motivate readers to stretch themselves in reading a wider variety of the classics they’ve always meant to read but found daunting. You should join if you’re up for the challenge!
Here is my list of 55 titles I intend to read and review by February of 2019. Those struck through have been read and reviewed here. (Occasionally there may be a few days between being completed and the review post, so be patient if you can’t find the review for a struck-through title.)
