Just found the perfect blog site : The Classics Club here at wordpress https://theclassicsclubblog.wordpress.com/
The goal is to support classics reading by posting a list (and I love lists!) of 50+ classics I intend to read and blog about in the next five years. Since my blog is all about reading the classics in order, this should not be a hard list to create. So here goes for 2016 ….

If you find a great list to do this let me know, I started reading sci fi classics (again, chronologically) but got derailed on The Last Man by Mary Shelley.
