"Top Ten Tuesday" is an original feature/weekly meme created on the blog "The Broke and the Bookish". It was created because they are particularly fond of lists. It is now hosted by Jana from That Artsy Reader Girl.
Since I am just as fond of them as they are, I jump at the chance to share my lists with them! Have a look at their page, there are lots of other bloggers who share their lists here.
This week's topic is Modern Books You Think Will Be Classics In The Future
A modern classic, then, would have to be a book written after World War I, and probably after World War II.

Some of these authors have written earlier books where I am even more convinced that they will become classics, but I have tried to stick to books written in this century.

This was a difficult for me, and I'm not sure I'm convinced so far. So I did a spin, in combo with #scifimonth: https://wordsandpeace.com/2025/11/18/scifimonth-2025-top-ten-classic-science-fiction-novels/
