So today is April 1st which means it's the end of the Classics Spin and time to own up to whether I completed the challenge or failed miserably.
#14 on my list was The Mystery of Edwin Drood by Charles Dickens and as this post attests, I finished this one well before the deadline. What can I say? I'm competitive. Because I love a good challenge and because I had another one of the potential spin reads on loan from the library, I decided to read a second book. This time The Lifted Veil by George Eliot (I did intend to read Brother Jacob too but that never happened).
I am pleased to have finished both of these short novels (very short, in the case of The Lifted Veil) and I'm very pleased that the Classics Spin gave me the kick I needed to get cracking on my Classics Club List (which, by the way, is slowly growing in length).
I will be posting a double-whammy review of the two spin books later this week. In the meantime, how did everyone else get on? I'm such a Curious George.
