Books Books Books!

I'm starting to blog again. My first post is very random. I have decided that this summer I will devote myself to reading classic literature. I have come up with a list of books:
  1. East of Eden – John Steinbeck
  2. Chronicles of Narnia – C.S. Lewis
  3. The Catcher in the Rye – J.D. Salinger
  4. Brave New World – Aldous Huxley
  5. The Old Man and the Sea – Ernest Hemmingway
  6. Crime and Punishment – Fyodor Dostoevsky
  7. The Sun Also Rises – Ernest Hemmingway
  8. Siddhartha – Hermann Hesse
  9. The Canterbury Tales – Geoffrey Chaucer
  10. Emma – Jane Austen
  11. Mrs. Dalloway – Virginia Woolf
  12. For Whom the Bells Toll – Ernest Hemmingway
  13. Les Miserables – Victor Hugo
  14. The Great Gatsby – Scott Fitzgerald
  15. One Hundred Years of Solitude – Gabriel Marquez
  16. Catch 22 – Joseph Heller
  17. Brave New World – Aldous Huxley
  18. Cannery Row – John Steinbeck
  19. Portrait of a Lady – Henry James
I have already started reading to East of Eden by Steinbeck which was given to me by Grace so I'm pretty proud of myself. I just hope I can finish this one book. If anyone has something to add, they should let me know!
