Adam Ivarssons incomplete list of read books

Hi there! This is a list of all books I've read so far. The books / Authors are in no particular order, so don't overthink it if the Deltora Quest books appear before A Brave New World.

The list was begun in 2019. This means that I have probably forgotten many books from my youth, including which precise year I read them. The list contains both normal full length novels, short stories, collections of novels and in some cases (Looking at you Howard Phillips Lovecraft) poems. The list most likely contains other inaccuracies as well.

If you hover over any book, you'll get some more information including what tags I've assigned to it. Most tags are self-explanatory such as "Horror" or "Fantasy" with the exception "Early Childhood"; which indicates that I cant remember precisely when I read it. So there are for example many Stephen King books marked with "Early Childhood" even though most were read in my teens.

Some not so interesting stats (which excludes short stories / novellas):
