It took over 4 years, but I’ve finished reading the books on PBS’ Great American Read. I have to admit, I did not read or finish ever single book on this list, but I’m still so proud of myself for getting back into reading and accomplishing reading this many books.

I would highly recommend this list for those who are in a “reading rut” (like I was). It gave me the motivation to re-read some favorites (The Book Thief, Harry Potter, LoTR), finally read books that have been on my want to read list (The Martian, A Handmaid’s Tale, The Wheel of Time), and discover new genres I never would have thought I’d enjoy (like Historical Fiction)!

Thanks to this reading list, I’m back to reading regularly and I’m very excited to start discovering new books!

I’d love to discuss the list and any books on this list in the comments.

    Hey, thanks for the website! I always find it difficult to find great books. I am mostly disappointed. Bestsellers, most of the time discourage me a lot! This is a really good list. Thanks!
