I'm going to continue to read a lot but want to branch out so am joining in Modern Mrs. Darcy reading challenge. The first category is A Classic You've Been Meaning to Read.
Help! I can't think of any off the top of my head although rereading Oliver Twist comes to mind.
What would you read if you were doing this challenge?
Edited to add:
Another list of potential reads by state - Famous book set in every state
And
I just may read Hemingway's To Have and Have Not or perhaps go for a classic children's book: Pollyana by Eleanor H. Porter.
