Read the 125 Books that the New York Public Library Recommends for Adults

Can you read 125 books in a year?  Mmm. This depends on a lot of things.  However, the trick is not the number – it’s the actual reading of the books!  If you don’t have time for 125 books, why not read one?  Here’s a list that the New York Public Library recommends for adults from the last 125 years.

These books are recommendations that you can place on hold.  However, stating the obvious that you cannot travel to the US to pick up said book, use this site as a “recommended reading” list and check whether these items are available at your local library (many local libraries nowadays have online catalogues for e-books and audio books) or alternatively, check these out through your preferred book selling platform such as Amazon, Book Depository, AbeBooks, Booktopia and others.
