What is the spin?
It’s easy. At your blog, before next Sunday, October 19th, create a post that lists twenty books of your choice that remain “to be read” on your Classics Club list.
This is your Spin List.
You have to read one of these twenty books by the end of the spin period.
On Sunday, October 19th, The Classics 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 Sunday, December 21st.
Let's see who can make it the whole way and finish their spin book!
I have an almost brand-new Classics Club list. Let's see where the needle stops.
