I’m a fan of the MTV cartoon Daria. You either know the show or don’t, but Google can get you up to speed if you’re interested. In the show she is often portrayed as reading a book. I found a list of the books that appeared in the show and have started to work on this list. I picked up the list from here https://www.aerogrammestudio.com/2014/09/30/daria-morgendorffer-reading-list/
As I move down the list I’ll make a post and add the link from here. I’m about half way though now, and I’ll keep posting about the books I’ve finished reading. I’m currently working on 36.
