♦ Reread a classic of your choice: [To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee]
♦ Classic Play: undecided
♦ Classic Mystery/Horror/Crime Fiction: [In Cold Blood by Truman Capote]
♦ Classic Romance: [Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen]
♦ Read a Classic that has been translated from its original language to your language: [One Thousand and One Nights]
♦ Classic Award Winner {To clarify, the book should be a classic which has won any established literary award}: [The Witch of Blackbird Pond by Elizabeth George Speare – Newberry Winner 1959]
♦ Read a Classic set in a Country that you (realistically speaking) will not visit during your lifetime {To clarify, this does not have to be a country that you hope to visit either. Countries that no longer exist or have never existed count.}: [The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas]
