I compiled my “1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die” list, based on the published book of that title. Doesn’t mean I’ll go around immediately eager to finish off the books in the list. Some of them are classics that I’m kinda reluctant to start (as they’re often sadly labeled as booring.. No offense, they’re still all high in value. But I just find them hard to grasp.) In any way, this list is good for books that otherwise I wouldn’t have heard of. It also re-highlights some books that I know everybody has read and I know I have to read too at some point of my life but have not. I’m sure there are lots and lots of gems here. So I’ll keep this page (and my to-read list) updated.
So far I’ve read 7-8 of them out of 1001 *grin*. I had about 10 of them on my to-read list before I found this 1001 Books list, added a few more after that. I’d probably random pick some books from the 1900s or 2000s once in a while to add to my list. The older ones scare me off easily.
How about you?
