Reading Challenge

Alright, I found out about this from Miss Laurie and I think it's a great way to get people reading interesting books this summer.
So here is my challenge to you...The British paper, The Guardian, has come up with a list of 1000 Novels Everyone Must Read Before They Die. So, the challenge is to read 10 (that's 1%) between May of 2009 and Jan 1st of 2010.Of these 10, you must read 1 from each category.

Hopefully, something you have not read before.
List is at this link.

Valley of the Dolls - Jacqueline Susann
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes - Anita Loos
American Psycho - Bret Easton Ellis
Tourist Season - Carl Hiassen

Witches of Eastwick - John Updike
The Shipping News - E. Annie Prolux
