For this list I at least feel like I've read enough to post my response. Is it a good sign or a bad sign that I haven't heard of so many of these books/authors? I think I'd be up for reading a lot of these that I didn't italicize, but I tried to limit myself to ones that I have told myself that I was going to read (at some point in my life). Got any recommendations for me?
