2018 Reading Challenge

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.

  4. My book club reads a classic every year. We really enjoyed The Mayor of Casterbridge by Thomas Hardy. For an American Book, try Orphan Train.
