michelleakazebra's "2000 Books to read in my lifetime."

Add to my lists | Print this list

A work in progress. If I read one book a week for the next 40 years I can finish this list. Feel free to comment and leave recommendations. Since someone else pointed out the duplicate books and since it’s been bugging me also I think I will take a short break from adding more books until I get this list alphabetized by author. (Being as this is Thanksgiving weekend here in Canada it might take a week or more 10/4/07) P.S. is there an easy way to organize this?!?! :/

a few simple mistakes — 3 years ago

I’m not sure that every single item on this list is an actual book . . . though I only noticed that once out of more than 700 titles


Good luck! — 4 years ago

I know you are still adding things to this list, but at some point you should go through it and double check it – there are several books that are on here twice or more, and some things aren’t even books.
