The Classics
Some stories stand the test of time. Whether a tome from a well known author of yesteryear, or a modern book with a cult following, there are many great classics out there.

Thank you to everyone who came out to our inaugural meeting. For those not yet joined, I have created an email discussion group, so join up if you want to stay connected in between meetups.
On To The Next
It was a bit of a journey, but I think we landed on our next theme: The Classics.
There are a great many “classic” sci-fi and fantasy novels out there. Some are classic for a reason, others maybe haven’t aged as well. There are even modern classics, ones that aren’t as old, but whether through popularity or cult status find themselves in a place of reverence. You probably have one or two on your TBR list already.
However you define it, the challenge this month is to read something classic. I will provide a list of some titles to get you started, but pretty much anything from these authors would qualify. You can email me or the group if you want more options.
