Classics Club

I know it took me a long time but I'm finally taking the plunge and joining the Classics Club! I was very hesitant at first as I've already read a good number of the classics but looking through my TBR list and other lists I realized there were still plenty of fish in the sea.
I am including NO re-reads... though actually Beowulf, The Epic of Gilgamesh and The Pickwick Papers, I honestly can't remember if I've read them or not. We're letting them slip in. :) I also included a couple books I'm currently reading (War of the Worlds and The Warden). I figured I might as well include them. :) My real worry is that I accidentally included a book on that list twice. :( If for any reason I can't get ahold of a copy of one of these books, or for some reason I decided not to read one of these novels (I haven't researched a lot of these books) then I'll change it out with another book but I hope I don't have to do that. If there are books on my list that you would highly dissuade me from please comment and let me know... I'm sure Shakespeare has more plays that I could trade those undesirables ones out for. ;)
You'll notice some Bronte books on the list. I've only read Jane Eyre before and swore never to read her sisters' books but I've gotten soft hearted in my old age and decided to slip a few in... even my most dreaded Wuthering Heights. I guess it's only fair though that I read it before spouting off my opinion on it. :)
My goals is to complete these 100 books by my 25th birthday (January 2019). I have a five year limit and that puts me about a month shy of it. :) I'll need those five years for all of these books!
