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