Classics Club Spin #25

It’s that time again! Time for The Classics Club Spin #25.  I have been such a slacker when it comes to reading the books on my Classics Club list, and if I’m being honest there aren’t too many books on the list that I want to read at the moment. So I’m going to stray from the list a little or maybe a lot, I just don’t know yet.

How does the Spin work? It’s as easy as 1-2-3. Really. Choose 20 books from your Classics Club list that you have yet to read and post the list to your blog before Sunday, November 22nd. 

Top Ten Tuesday: Books with Fall Covers

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s Top Ten Tuesday is from a few weeks ago, September 7th. And, although it’s a question that specifically asks about picture books, I decided to go above and beyond.

Book Covers with Fall Colors/Vibes (or spring if you live in the southern hemisphere)

The Friday 56 – Lovecraft Country by Matt Ruff

The Friday 56 is a weekly meme hosted over at Freda’s Voice. The rules are simple and go something like this.

1.  Grab a book, any book.
2.  Turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader (If you have to improvise, that’s ok.)
3.  Find any sentence, (or a few, just don’t spoil it)
4.  Post it.

WWW Wednesday – Sept. 30th

I’m sure, I haven’t done a WWW Wednesday in years and I thought why not. I mean it’s not like I have extra time to read for pleasure with finishing my last two classes for graduation. But here we are.

So, how does WWW Wednesday work? It’s simple really. Just answer the following three questions.

The Three Ws are:

What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll read next?

I did a buddy read with some Booktube buddies and really enjoyed it. It’s a space opera with queer characters, polyamory, a matriarchal society, a space beast, forbidden love, and more. It was a relatively quick read, but there are some instances in which you’ll want to slow down and just really enjoy the text.
