Only read Huck Finn and Hamlet.....

I've been re-reading some books I was assigned while I was in High School.
Just finished Great Gatsby not too long ago, I enjoyed it. Might have to dig into some Tolstoy this fall.

What I see is your regular textbook "best of" list. All literary canon here.

I like some of these titles, but my list would probably point to 10 others.

What Vrankol said. That list is way too safe.

Besides, everyone knows that King Lear > Hamlet. ;-)

And to think...I have wasted my life reading Stephen King, Watership Down and cereal boxes.
