Having just finished a book today-A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson (Book Review coming this week!)–I am in the process of choosing a new book.  I looked to my bookshelf, and nothing really jumped out at me.  I undertook an always ambitious task, setting down a reading list.  Reading lists–to me, at least–are not rigid in any sense.  Merely, they are, a guide, a list of possible upcoming reads.  I doubt I’ll get to even half of these books in the next year–but I can sure try!

-A Clockwork Orange — Anthony Burgess
-1984 — George Orwell
-Brothers Karamazov — Fyodor Dostoevsky
-Of Mice and Men — Steinbeck
-Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance — Robert Persig
-Walden — Henry Thoreau
-The Thin Red Line — James Jones
-Autobiography of Malcolm X — Alex Haley
-The Red Badge of Courage — Stephen Crane
-Superfreakonomics — Steven Levitt & Stephen Dubner
-Confessions of an Economic Hitman — John Perkins
-The Road — Cormac McCarthy
-Sons of Mississippi — Paul Hendrickson
