A Penguin Classics Book Chain From Goodreads

A simple enough chain. Starting with the Penguin Classics edition of "Heart of Darkness" ( a favorite work!), I merely went to the first Penguin Classic edition that appeared in the "Readers Also Enjoyed…" section on Goodreads , clicked, and repeated, ignoring books previously selected. I planned to continue until either "Heart of Darkness" reappeared or no Penguin Classic editions appeared; the latter is what ultimately ended the chain.
