You can’t go wrong with Amazon’s 100 Books To Read In A Lifetime. I’ve only read a bit over a dozen of them, and some of those in school when I probably didn’t appreciate them. I’ve never had a time in my life when I thought, “You know, I’m reading too much.” It’s a weekend — read!
I like Economic Times’ (India) “30 Books to Read Before 30” a lot more powerful because it is more focused on philosophy than literature. I am running out of time.

PS:- I wish I could just drop a picture in the comment and it would be turned up as a link and a thumbnail or at least that Imgur link as a thumbnail.
This is so true!
The guardian has a great on-going list too:

Like you said, it’s the weekend – always time for enjoying a nice read!
Amazed to find I have read 26 of the list. Though some so long ago I can’t remember the details!
Always a great list from Amazon!
How to make friends and influence people is my all TIME fave!

Good source for my nextread, just one that been read is “Charlotte’s Web” Thank you.
17 to date.
Most listed are fiction.
Amazon fails to list the two thousand or so non-fiction books read that were worth time. (Most if not all are for sale on their site.)
Knowledge transfer is the prime reason books exist; good entertainment is more suited to other forms of expression.
14 for me. And if Dune isn’t on your already read list, move it right to the top.
