Until maybe 5 years ago, I would read almost anything. This is great for discovery, but sucks when you have to plow through an abysmal book. I remember vividly reading the sequel of Dracula by a descendant (and a handful of ghostwriter) of Bram Stocker. This was terrible, full of cliché, badly written... So now I am actually planning what I am going to read next. There are lots of classic to chose from. Admittedly some are boring. Last year, I have really enjoyed Lord Jim, Nostromo and Heart of Darkness. I always have a "to read next" list with 10-20 books in it.
