http://www.listsofbests.com/list/12163 I started up a Required Reading List in 2006, when I had a mind-numbing job and wanted to keep my brain from melting. I read a lot, but wanted an extra framework to supplement my normal reading. This year, I'm looking to cover some classic genre books: mystery, crime, western, romance, erotica, fantasy, adventure, science fiction, humor...what else?
