This list is via @librarymindsets with the links to Kindle e-books on Amazon added by yours truly. I tried to not have them inadvertently go to study guides, so if you see something say something.
I was assigned some of these in school, but in the end probably worked harder to not read them than it would have been if I simply had. Hey, the teachers read those study guides too, apparently.
So now I challenge myself in 2025 to rectify my mistake and get caught up.
