Ideas from Yahoo 2

After I turned on my computer and it booted up and before logging onto the Internet sites that I 'work' for the first thing I see is various articles on Yahoo and I browse for ideas. The first was on weird foods from the 7o's and this one will be on famous books that they say everyone should read sometime during their lives. I have to admit I have read most of them and three I plan to get one day. I am going to just list them here.

The Canterbury Tales

Pride and Prejudice

1984

To Kill a Mockingbird

The Catcher in the Rye

The Great Gatsby

The Divine Comedy

The Brothers Karamazov

War and Peace

Moby Dick

Don Quixote

Infinite Jest

A brief history of time

Les Miserable

To be honest I read sections of these books in high school and college, but after graduating I decided to read most of these for fun and they were very good books and thoroughly enjoyable. The only ones that I have not read were 'Infinite Jest' and 'A Brief History of Time' but I do plan to read them one day. Some of the others that I have not read, but plan to very shortly are 'The Great Gatsby', 'Pride and Prejudice', 'The Divine Comedy', 'The Brothers Karananoz', and 'Don Quixote'. Again, I am hoping for comments on this article with maybe some classic novels that you may want to read one day just for fun.
