If you were smart, you'd read 1 hour every day from the western canon. In one year, you can finish: Odyssey The Republic The Divine Comedy Don Quixote The Social Contract Paradise Lost Faust Heart of Darkness To the Lighthouse The Stranger The Death of Virgil Dubliners Blood Meridian The Crying of Lot 49 Brothers Karamazov War and Peace The Gay Science On the Genealogy of Morality Fear and Trembling Confessions Sure, it's a generic list but literally no one reads anymore.
