Can we get a better definition of classical literature or some examples?

I'm quite interested in this one since I read a lot of what I think would fit into that category.

I think you are on your own orlok.

That's a 2nd for Lottery, although Dazrin has still not defined the term.

Here was Dazrin's position when they nominated it for April:

I nominated it originally and I prefer the modification, so count me in on "2. The lottery winner chooses a selection of books from which we choose via a poll." If fantasyfan and orlok agree, I think we could change it. Since that would be all three of the nominators.

I am ok either way though.
I'll third it.

Sorry for the confusion. As quoted above, Lottery version 2 (winner provides a selection for voting on).

I'll third Young Adult, Humor, and Award Winners, which were the three I'd want to nominate if they weren't there.

I'll second Adventure which has nothing to do with travelling - and I'm amusing myself trying to think of examples. The two "Alice" books, certainly!

Well shoot! I forgot about this category. I would have nominated it instead, if I had thought about it.
