I am watching Gilmore girls as I read the bingo card and was thrilled to see this as a prompt!! I've always envied Rory for her ability to plow through classics like they are children's books.. and now I have the official list and WILL read every book on it one day..
I have way too many options to choose from for this prompt! A lot of these books can fit into other categories, too!
The Virgin Suicides has been on my TBR for a long time. Still not sure if I will use it for my Rory Gilmore pick or for Set in the 1970's. (I'm trying not to double square any books - I'm too competitive)
I haven't read The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, Middlesex, or Brick Lane yet and I have all three of those. I also have Personal History by Katherine Graham.
For I try to read books which I already own I might gor for Backlash: The Undeclared War Against American Women or The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath.

Oooh, Kavalier and Clay has been sitting on my shelf for YEARS untouched. Maybe I will finally pick it up...

Thank you for this because I'm probably the only woman of my generation that's never watched the Gilmore Girls LOL

Thank you for the list! I have Middlesex and still haven't read it so that might be my pick; we'll see...
Nope, I haven't seen it either. I want to, just haven't made the ..."It's good to know I'm not the only one, Susan <3
I don't think you can go wrong with any of the many choices on this list. I am going with the great Seamus Heaney and his translation of Beowulf.
So many choices!! Think I'm going to revisit an old favorite: The Outsiders.And, I've never watched Gilmore Girls, either....
There are so many choices, but I think I'm going with The Catcher in the Rye since I own it, it's been on my TBR forever, and it's a shorter one.
Someone set up the list as a reading list on listopia here on Goodreads if anyone needs ideas : https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/7...
I've been wanting to read Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers forever, so that's my pick for this one.

Yes! It’s the same story with more pictures. As far as I know it isn’t abridged in any way.
