shootingstarr7's "1001 Books I'd Like to read before I die."

This list is, in some ways, a response to the similarly titled list by Dr. Peter Boxall. Some of my choices will be the same, some will be different. And it will take me rather a long time to fully add 1001 books to the list.

The numerical order of the books does not matter; this is just a list of 1001 books I think are important to read, even if I have not yet read them myself.
