Well... that kind of depends on what your ultimate goal is. If you just want to be entertained, then that list is going to depend greatly on the kinds of things that entertain you. But if you want something more - if you want to LEARN - then I have a pretty good list for you.
This was compiled by Will Durant, who was recognized as one of the world's leading historians and philosophers. His list is of the 100 best books for an education. To gain a basic understanding of EVERYTHING: history, science, philosophy, culture, the world, and the people in it.
It's a very large goal... but if done in installments of just a few minutes a day, it's probably one that almost anybody can achieve. Imagine having some perspective and background on just about any situation that might arise...
Go for it!

You can't, no such thing exists. Meaning assigned to books is too subjective to create a set of 100 that are "must reads"
