redheadraye's "Classic Books I want to Read"

I have a goal to read more classic books: books that people have considered the best of their times, whether they are fiction or non-fiction, children’s books or adult. This list will probably continue to change. Recommendations are welcome.

I have included some that I read a long time ago, so this may become a list of reference for me.
