Please note: If you are participating in this tour and the information above is incorrect or you need to make a change to your tour day, please let us know by leaving a comment or emailing classicscircuit [at] googlegroups [dot] com. Someone from the Committee will update the schedule.

If you missed sign up and you would like to be added to the schedule at this late point, we still have a few free slots and we can still fit you in.

Welcome to the sign up for the Alexandre Dumas tour, part two of the Paris in the Springtime circuit 🙂

The tour will begin on April 19, overlapping with the last weeks of the Zola tour, and will last for about three weeks, depending on the number of participants. If you have signed up for Zola and also wanted to sign up for Dumas, note that we will be sending tour day assignment emails in the next few days; you may want to wait until you know when you are assigned for that tour.

You can sign-up for the tour until March 12, and we would love to have you part of it!

When you indicate that you want to participate, please keep in mind that we will assign you a date during the tour on which you should post. If you are unable to meet your assigned date, let us know and we can reassign you: otherwise, we’ll take you off the schedule. Please let us know when you sign up your preferred and/or unavailable days during the month.

Information compiled by Rebecca of Rebecca Reads, Teresa of Shelf Love, Nicole of Linus’s Blanket, Chris of book-a-rama and Kay of Kay’s Bookshelf.

The sign-up has closed.
