100 Books to Read (Monicap Needs to Read These)

This is my take on the definitive "100 books to read" list but like a little bit more interesting than those lists tend to be. I hope to be able to do a take on that list but actually, recommending books I've already read sometime soon. It's just hard to come up with a definitive list like that, especially while I haven't read some of the titles on this list!
