A Bucket of Books (414 Novels, Books, Plays, Sports Stories and Science Fiction Classics to Read in Your Lifetime)

I tried to get something from every genre and only included the first few books for series. List was created by taking 15 best of lists. I then added 2 years of recommended books from The Week and Guardian and added my favorites to the list--if they weren't already there.
