save up, buy an e-reader, steal all your books off the internet.

50$ is nothing, anon. You better spend that at Betterworldbooks. First, go for the absolute classics, the long books, the philosophy books:

The Republic
Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus
Plato's dialogues
Nietzsche

Only then go for fiction
Divina Comedia
Moby Dick
The Brothers Karamazov
The stories by Nabokov and Kafka

I read 95% of you list and they are all good, but most of that can wait.

good luck

That seems to be a common argument here. It's not one I really understand to be honest. Everybody likes the feel of a real book, but it's not like reading on an e-reader is that bad. However, I presume that you genuinely tried and don't like reading on an e-reader and that you're not being an autist who just wants to show off his collection.

As for your question what to read next. Looking at your list I see a lot of Wordsworth Classics. I'd avoid those. The translations are usually not the best and the quality and font-size are terrible. Everyman's Library is great from my experience but if you're short on money you can do better value-wise. As for the rest, just buy what you feel like reading, honestly. You're probably gravitating towards some books, just buy those and buy the rest when you get more money. That's all the advice I can give you.
