The First 100 Books the English Teacher Thought of When Asked What to Read Next - Page 2

Just as the title describes - 100 works of fiction that first came to mind when I was asked what should be read next. Ask me tomorrow and I'll give you a different list ( although some books will recur.) I limited myself to fiction - poetry, drama, and non-fiction would be on different lists. This is not a "best of…" list; rather it is a random selection of books that occurred to me. Some of them are on my TBR pile as well.
Note: I thought of them randomly, then sorted them after I reached 100.
