The Big Read reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they've printed.
(The Big Read sounds kind of like a bunch of elitist wankers - which is hard to do when you have Harry Potter on your literature list.)
Anyway ...
1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.
2)Italicise those you intend to read. I could die in my sleep tonight. If I don't and I wanna read 'em, I'll read 'em. *G*
3) Underline the books you LOVE,add an strikeout the books you read but didn't like.
( More for me than for you )
I hope this isn't considered THE list of seminal literature. Where's Frankenstein by Mary Shelley? A Vindication of the Rights of Woman by Mary Wollstonecraft? ANYTHING by Stephen King? Where the eff is Chaucer? (And I'm sorry, if you're going to put Dan Brown on there, you damn well better have Carl Hiaasen.)
My God, where is James Michener, the KING of geographical history?!?
