100 Books From an English Literature Reading List

A selection of 100 fiction works, non-fiction works, plays and poems I read (or was supposed to read) for my English Literature course. A lot of popular List Challenge books, but there are a good number that don't show up here very often. Hopefully you can find a book here to interest you.
