One blog leads to another...I stumbled upon a blog called The Displaced English Major. Her blog is goal oriented which led me to the list she is following. The list is from Modern Library which actually I should note that there are two...I started skimming the list to see how cool (or not cool) I was. I usually don't like lists (my exception are ones from friends that hardly seem to fail me) for a few reasons, the biggest reason being the anxiety it causes me to feel that when I die, I will not have read all the books I've wanted to read (anybody feel me on this, or is that just sad?). Perhaps it's worth checking out to you.
PS: Flannery O'Connor didn't make the list but John Irving did (fuck you modern library!)
PSS: But all the books I have read on the lists are some of my favorites (damn, your love hurts!)
PSSS: In case you're interested as I was, I've read 17 on the board's list and 21 on the reader's list. ::Sigh:: What about you?
