The English Teacher's "Want to Read" Shelf on Goodreads

Our maverick English Teacher looks at his "Want to Read" shelf on Goodreads. He is fascinated by how diverse the list is, and is surprised at how few of the books have anything to do with what he teaches. Some of them he wants to read again, others he has wanted to read for some time now but has never gotten around to them, and a few he doesn't even remember putting on the list. He also realizes that the next book he reads may not even be on this list; something else entirely might suddenly pique his interest. He wonders what it all means, but not for long. After all, a wide range of interests indicates a flexible mind, doesn't it?
