10. TBA

Books I'm considering:
* Oil --Upton Sinclair
* Paradise Lost --John Milton
* The Grapes of Wrath --John Steinbeck
* Crime & Punishment --Fyodor Dostoyevsky
* Absalom, Absolom! --William Faulkner

I am also taking suggestions, so feel free to post something if you think it might be worthwhile. I want to try and read things that are considered "classics" to some extent in order to prep for my Literature classes next quarter. But I will throw books in if they are really good, too, because I do need some pleasure reading in there from time to time! Also, length is kind of a factor because I want to read 10 books and I don't know if that's possible if the books are all 1000 pages. I would greatly appreciate and consider any and all suggestions!

Thanks!
