I don't have a reading list. I have a pile (strictly speaking some piles) of books, which I add to now and then, and when I've finished my current book I go to the pile to choose the next one.
Criteria for my next book are:
1) Not too similar to the last one.
2) Shorter than than the last one (if the last one was long) or longer than the last one (if the last one was short).
3) Heavier going, if the last one was an easy read, or vice versa.
4) What I'm finding intriguing at the particular moment I visit the pile.
I should be finishing my current read in the next day or two. I think the next book off the pile will be Meredith Wilson's account of how The Music Man came into being, "But He Doesn't Know the Territory."
