mishistar's "My Neverending Lifetime Reading List"

Add to my lists | Print this list

I started this list over a year ago of books that I wanted to read throughout my lifetime. In general, this was the classics, Shakespeare, and anything else I would find useful as a future English professor. Yet, after I finished a book that I liked, I went online to see if there were any similar titles and added them to my list. Many months later and my list is 23 typed, single-spaced pages long. So what could be better than sharing it with you all. Enjoy!

P.S. I somehow keep finding books to add on to this list, so you can expect to see it grow considerably as the years go on. Don’t say you weren’t warned.

Good luck with your own reading list. I’m eager to see what titles you add over time.
