larisa5656's "My Neverending Lifetime Reading List"

Add to my lists | Print this list

I started this list over a year ago of books that I wanted to read throughout my lifetime. In general, this was the classics, Shakespeare, and anything else I would find useful as a future English professor. Yet, after I finished a book that I liked, I went online to see if there were any similar titles and added them to my list. Many months later and my list is 23 typed, single-spaced pages long. So what could be better than sharing it with you all. Enjoy!

P.S. I somehow keep finding books to add on to this list, so you can expect to see it grow considerably as the years go on. Don’t say you weren’t warned.
