My non-elitist random attempt to plan thoughtful elitist Booklist

NOT Jane Eyre!!! Worst experience of my life! Right now I am reading The Pillars of Earth by Ken Follet. It’s fiction and takes place in the 12th century so it’s really interesting. And different parts of the books are from different characters perspectives a monk, a poor mason, and the son of an earl.
I am also reading How The Irish Saved Civiliation which talks about the enormous impact the Irish had on the time period between the fall of the Roman Empire and the beginning of the Middle Ages.
Next I think I am looking forward to reading another Jane Austen. I have read Mansfield Park and I think I have Sense and Sensibility on my shelf and maybe Emma as well. So not sure if I should do that. I also bought a big book of Celtic Myths that I am excited to read and I bought Canterbury Tales which I am equally excited about.
