The 2013 Classics Catch-up Challenge

Hi, everyone! Time for a 2013 Reading Challenge!!


This challenge is being hosted by Jessica at Quirky Bookworm.

Here are the details copied from Jessica's blog:
The 2013 Classics Catch-up Challenge

All you have to do to enter in my challenge is put your info in the GoogleDoc below (because it feels much more official if you're putting your name to it!), and then read along with me. Every two months I'll have a little link-up/series of questions about the current book(s) for you to participate in.

Below are the six classics that I've never read (the ones in bold - and yes, I'm totally embarrassed to be admitting this). The other titles I've read before, but it's been years. Re-reading participation is absolutely welcome, you just have to be willing to actually re-read the WHOLE thing, and participate in the link-ups. Scouts honor!

January-February
Anna Karenina
Wuthering Heights


March- April
Macbeth
Hamlet
Othello


May-June
Madame Bovary
Catch-22


July-August
Of Mice and Men
Robinson Crusoe


September-October
Don Quixote
My Antonia


November-December
Animal Farm
A Tale of Two Cities


Here are the challenge levels:

0-4 Freshman (Sorry, I got bored.)

5-8 Sophomore (Hooray! I feel more well-rounded.)

9-11 Junior (Enter me to win a $25 Amazon gift card.)

12-13 Senior (I'm awesome! I want that gift card, plus a free book.)

Yup, at the end of 2013, if you've read/participated for at least 9 out of the 13 classics, I'll automatically enter you in a drawing to win a $25 Amazon gift card!
If you would like to join me in the challenge, click on the challenge badge at the beginning of this post.

I am aiming for FRESHMAN LEVEL (0-4 classics).

I will keep track of my progress below and link up my reviews:
