Earlier this year I did a massive organizing and weeding of my book collection and added all my owned-fiction (read or not) to Goodreads. This resulted in identifying books that I had read for some of the missing years:
1915 - Of Human Bondage by Somerset Maugham
1919 - Winesburg Ohio by Sherwood Anderson
During 2021 I have read some books published in years I was missing:
1907 - Ozma of Oz by L. Frank Baum
1911 - The Innocence of Father Brown by G. K. Chesterton
This leaves me with nine years still to be covered (books listed are possibilities for each year; the starred ones I have copies of):
1901 - Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter; The Crisis by Winston Churchill
1902 - The Virginian* by Owen Wister
1903 - The Ambassadors by Henry James
1902 - The Virginian* by Owen Wister
1903 - The Ambassadors by Henry James
1904 - Esau and Jacob by Machado de Assis; The Golden Bowl by Henry James
1906 - Railway Children by E. Nesbit; Love Among the Chickens by P. G. Wodehouse
1909 - 3 Lives* by Gertrude Stein
1909 - 3 Lives* by Gertrude Stein
1912 - Buttered Side Down (Short Stories) by Edna Ferber
1946 - Delta Wedding by Eudora Welty; Member of the Wedding* by Carson McCullers
I don't expect to read books for all the remaining years in the next few months, so this project will extend into 2022 and possibly beyond.
