The bolded titles are the plays I've read. Some in high school, most in college. I was supposed to read Two Gentlemen of Verona as summer reading before my senior year (it was one of five works we had to read, the others being Frankenstein, Ivanhoe, 1984 and something I can't remember now). 

 I definitely want to read Othello, The Tempest, The Taming of the Shrew and The Merchant of Venice. I think I'll aim to read another tragedy and one history to round out my 6 for the year. If I decide to up it to 12, I'll probably try to read two more plays from each category.
