Scratch

I only list Grades 2 through 7, though I personally believe most of these could be enjoyed by all ages.    You can browse your grade level, ctrl+f to find something else by a good author, et cetera. The books are in alphabetical order; grade-level wise I sorted them by difficulty (as well as content, if any, so be warned if you read something I categorized higher than your grade level). Some of them aren't in the chosen grade level for difficulty or content, but because the reader would probably better appreciate a certain book at a later age.
I've read them all myself, so that I know which grade level is good for whatever book.
I did this extended version of my old Epic Booklist because I have a hard time finding books and hate that. Cheers. If there are any books you think are good that I haven't listed, tell me!    If I have read it I'll put it up; if I haven't read it, I won't put it up because I like to judge for myself what grade it's good for, but I will probably find and read it if it sounds good, and thank you for the recommendation 
Yes, the 7th grade list is very short... I find it easier to sort books I've already read into lower grade levels.
