Terrific picks! I love that you included The Outsiders. For my list I looked for classics you might not have heard of.

I have One Hundred Years of Solitude sitting on my bookshelf. I know a lot of people love it, but it seems like a big investment!

It really is. I will be honest in saying it took more than one or two tries before I finally committed to it and trucked through a good portion of it. I think one of the most difficult things for me was that there are so many characters with the same name (as a family of descendants) that it was confusing. I spent a lot of time flipping back to that family tree in the front!
