Reading Order Lists
I love these lists. Because when I find a new-to-me author then I either: 1) have never read them and want to know where to begin or 2) don't know where to go next in their back list next.
Well, my friend, the more I've thought about this, the more I realized how subjective it is. So, to really tailor your M. Mabie reading experience, I've made a few reading order lists you might find more helpful than the most commonly found chronological order list—which I have also included.
Let's do it.
