My plans for next year is to keep tracking what I read. After reviewing the list of what I've read this year so far I noticed I've not read any classics or many non-fiction books. So, for next year I plan to read at least 1 classic a month (or a total of 12 during the year) and 6 non-fiction books.

I've selected 15 classics I can choose from, because I've read a lot of classics at university I've limited myself to either classics I haven't read yet or ones I've read before my second year at university:

1. Middlemarch - George Eliot
2. Lark Rise to Candleford - Flora Jane Thompson
3. The Circular Staircase - Mary Roberts Rinehart
4. Uncle Tom's Cabin - Harriet Beecher Stowe
5. Great Expectations - Charles Dickens
6. A Midsummer Night's Dream - Wiliam Shakespeare
7. A Clockwork Orange - Anthony Burgess
8. A Tale of Two Cities - Charles Dickens
9. War and Peace - Leo Tolstoy
10. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn - Mark Twain
11. Beloved - Toni Morrison
12. The Grapes of Wrath - John Steinbeck
13. The Color Purple - Alice Walker
14. One Hundred Years of Solitude - Gabriel Garcie Márquez
15. Breakfast at Tiffany's - Truman Capote

I haven't selected any non-fiction books, I've got quite a few on my TBR list so I'm just going to see what I feel like reading when I want to read a non-fiction book.
