This site doesn’t let me uncheck books, but if I could, I would uncheck those I read in high school for the following reasons: 1) Time – it’s been 7 to 10 years since I read these; 2) Standards – a few of these I skipped or skimmed chapters to keep up with the class, and now I only count books if I’ve read them completely; 3) Tastes – Being older, better educated, and having read so much more literature, my response to material is completely different now.
Re-read so far: The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, The Great Gatsby, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, Hamlet, Beowulf, The Catcher in the Rye, The Metamorphosis, Brave New World, The Stranger, The Crucible, Death of a Salesman, Great Expectations, The Scarlet Letter, Things Fall Apart, Of Mice and Men, Heart of Darkness, The Grapes of Wrath, Crime and Punishment.
