GreyHeron's "the never-ending reading list"

Add to my lists | Print this list

This is the kind of list that makes even the most hardened bookworm cry – because you know, deep down, that somewhere in the middle of the list, there’s something you haven’t read yet. And that bothers you. So go ahead – take a look. The worst that could possibly happen is you reach the bottom of the list, only to realize someone’s been adding more at the other end.
