How To Participate:
1. Post here telling the challenge leader that you'd like to join the challenge. You can choose your books for the challenge at the beginning, or add them as you go. You can join a challenge at any time, as long as the challenge is still active.
2. Whenever you finish a book for the challenge, post here and let the challenge leader know so they can update your progress.
Some members choose to update their original post with their progress to keep track of their challenge more easily, but make sure to also post a new message so the challenge leader knows to go look at your original post.
Oh this seems fun, I'd like to join. I have no idea what I'll be reading yet or how many, but I'll update as I go along.p.s. how long is this challenge expected to be?

Depends on how many books you are going to read. So you set your own time limit. You may treat it as a yearly from start date, or try and finished before the start of a new year, etc. Totally up to you.
How are you determining what a classic is? There are more modern books that are assumed to become classics and there are the definite classics that are well-defined. Just curious.

Just curious."It’s up to you to define ‘classic’ and choose your books. I personally categorise books under pre-1945 (Older Classics), post-1945 (Modern Classics) and Children’s Classics, but that’s just me.


You can set a goal for how many that you would like to read.
