100 books

I saw this recently on another CathSorority member's blog and I thought I would take the challenge and attempt to read more books off the 100 books to read before you die list.  I read The Handmaid's Tale because of it.  It was interesting, though not at all a favorite.  But I could see because it reflects the culture of the 80's why it would be on there.

So here is the list. The italicized ones I've read.  Which is 32 of them.  I have a lot more reading to do.  Do you recommend any for me that I have not read yet?  Thanks. :)
