Ninety-Nine books to read in my lifetime
Many are classics everyone will recognize. Others were recommended based on my particular interests. More than a few I feel are critical to read as they are the root of countless literary allusions. Several I believe are necessary to help understand the world we live in.

...And some, I've just always wanted to read.
