The Classic Reading Challenge 2012 is a bookish challenge hosted by
Since I've always had a healthy interest in the classics, and I still want to read many of them that I haven't yet, I figured this challenge would be perfect for me this upcoming new year. I'm only going to start out challenging myself to read 3, which is the Level One category. I may end up reading more than that--who knows!
My choices for classic literature to read that I haven't yet for this challenge will be:
1. The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien (in time for the movie by December 2012!)
2. Persuasion by Jane Austen (always wanted to read it.)
3. The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson (this one should be totally fascinating.)
