Next on my list is Atlas Shrugged, and then Dracula, Moby Dick, and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. I won't necessarily read them in that order, and I may come across something else that I'll read before I get to these, but this is my intended list! For every book I check off on my reading list, I add about 10 new ones. If only I could get paid to read books all day - isn't that what most people want?

I have a list that I keep on the fridge of books that I want to read, but it’s constantly getting updated or changed; it’s a living document ;)

Right now, I want to finish Mocking Jay by Suzanne Collins, and The Painted Bird by Jerzy Kosinski, and then read The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. After that I will have to re-evaluate!

Oh but I'm nervous!
Why are you nervous you dont think you will like the book??? :shock:
Oh I'll love the book! This series, and author, hasn't disappointed me yet.

I'm nervous because of this...

Once I finish Herland by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, I'll start reading A Simple Education by an obscure eighteenth-century British female writer called Elizabeth Inchbald for my dissertation. Besides this, I'll be reading a whole bunch of stuff for other modules, including: Plato's Republic, A Vindication of the Rights of Women by Mary Wollstonecraft and a bunch of Modernist poets! :)

All those books are fabulous.

My to-read list is a computer document that is currently 5 pages long. I did some extensive editing recently trying to focus it a bit, but no luck. Oh well. Next up is Edith Wharton's "Age of Innocence", which I hope to start this afternoon.

I have a big list on GoodReads of books I want to read, but I never keep that in mind when I go to a bookstore. I buy books that aren't on my list and then I read those and more and more books get added to the list and it's a never ending cycle. I know for sure though that when I'm done with my current series, I'm reading Doctor Sleep by Stephen King.

The Witch of Portobello is an amazing book I would recommend if you liked it that you read Brida after that it's also an awesome book by Paulo Coehlo that runs along the same lines, some people and by some I mean mostly my mom who bugged me to read it :lol: call it a continuation of The Witch of Portobello.
