The Non Classics, Unpretentious Book List

There are so many booklists telling us what we should read and alluding to "The Classics"
I love reading but I have found so many of those classics to be dryer than the Sahara Desert in a drought.
I've read and enjoyed all of the books that make up this list.
Maybe you'll find a few gems for yourselves in the list...I hope so.
