September 12 marks the end of the 2nd year of the Lengthly Literary List!

I have:

Read 83 "classic" novels
Chose not to finish 7 "classic" novels
Completed 15 percent of the total list (available here)

I have 510 novels remaining! I am going back to school to get my certifications in medical coding and billing so I do expect progress will slow down, but I am hopeful I can finish it before 2030!
