The #Classicsathon is back in January, ready to kickstart your classics reading year!

Start date: 1st January 2020
End date: 15th January 2020

You can join in wherever you are and I'll be putting more topics together for you to share what you're reading and your TBRs.

Don't forget to use #Classicsathon if you're sharing on Instagram or Twitter!

Hope you have an amazing #Classicsathon!

Art the Bookworm (artkilmer) | 6 comments Are there any "rules" or challenges that you are supposed to do during the #Classicsathon? Or do we just read as many classics as we can when we can?

I'm reading Braddon's Thou Art the Man, and Dickens' Little Dorrit for sure.
