Reading List

My unquenchable thirst for knowledge and short attention span lead me to devour books with an insatiable appetite. Recently I have had two main focus areas of reading, surrounded by various offshoots. The Classics and Nora Roberts. The Classics feed my needs for knowledge, language, literature, conversation and educational lapses. Nora Roberts fill in my female desires for romance, adventure, struggle and rescue. The steamy scenes certainly don't hurt either. Neither does the fact that I can read one of her books in about 2 days.

To focus on the Classics for a moment, I have been compiling a list that has grown faster than my actual reading has whittled down. I would love to know what your favorite books are, or any recommendations you might have.
