Have a list of things I want to read

I consider myself a William Faulkner fan, but never read The Sound and The Fury so I am interested in reading that
finna read the 5th Orphan X novel.
John Edgar Wideman's new short story collection American Histories
The Water Knife
by Paolo Bacigalupi

just need to find the time, and decide what to read first. sometimes I just jump around each one and read a 4-10 chaps between each of them.

I just finished The Toll yesterday. It’s the final book in the Arc of the Scythe trilogy by Neal Shusterman

If y’all haven’t read any of them, at least read the first one, Scythe. I picked it up last October because the cover and the premise seemed dope as fukk. It’s Y.A. book but I couldn’t put it down. I read the first one in 1 day. I haven’t done that in years. The second book is called Thunderhead and this third is The Toll.

The first book gave me the same vibes I got from The Giver as a youngster. It’s definitely more adult themed and intense than that, but I think the comparison is a decent one.

I’m now onto The Institute by Stephen King. I’m not far into it yet but it’s intriguing so far.
