ShysubGirl's "On My Way to 1,000 Books"

Add to my lists | Print this list

One of my goals is to read 1,000 books. This will eventually be that list. I am of course open to suggestions. I am kind of a surveyor; I want to try to read different kinds of things, great writing, and influential books and authors.
