My Next Reading List

Are you confused about which book to read next … look no further … there are lists and lists, and lists for all sorts of preferences here!

Must Read Classics

‘One glance at a book and you hear the voice of another person, perhaps someone dead for 1,000 years. To read is to voyage through time.’ 

Carl Sagan – Astronomer, Cosmologist, Astrophysicist, Astrobiologist

It would be a rather extraordinary challenge to read all the classics, so, when choosing your next book consider the following for a balanced selection:

Make sure you have a balance between male and female authors (M/F).

Try and pick books set in different cultures.

Make sure you have read a couple of translated texts.

Try and spread your selection across history and into the future.
