In my attempt to read all of the books on the “1001 Books You Need to Read Before You Die” list (the 2003 edition), I figured my downtime is a good time to make a dent in this endeavor. Of course, not every book I read is on “the list”, but I do try to look there when I’m looking for a new book to read.
Below is a running list of books I’ve read since graduation, which may or may not have brief reviews in my entries.
Alias Grace by Margaret Atwood – Completed June 23
Regeneration by Pat Barker – Completed July 11
