there is a near limitless supply of text to read. if you start a book that feels too light or boring, ditch it. i think its worthwhile to read things you dislike or may not agree things from time to time, but its totally okay to abandon a book that you do not feel is worth your time. i say start with what interests you most! i think a good reading list is a mutable construct to give you ideas on what to read next and keep you from forgetting books you heard about, not necessarily a list to really kill. also you can remove books from it that dont interest you anymore, its not an assignment. i think a strong book lover will have a list that keeps growing throughout their life :)
