And how many more of them do you fancy?
The list is here www.worldbooknight.org/about-world-book-night/wbn-2012/the-books
I've only read 3 off the list Blush and would be interested in about 8 more.
I certainly had read more off the 2011 list.

NoraHelmer, if you liked those, then I would really recommend How I Live Now - an incredibly powerful book, and beautifully written.

I've read 6 of them - Pride & Prejudice, Notes from a Small Island, A Tale of Two Cities, Rebecca, The Remains of the Day and I Capture the Castle. I tried to read The Time Traveller's Wife but couldn't get on with it, so that's only part read.

On my TBR pile, I have The Book Thief and Room, and I quite like the sound of The Secret Dreamworld of a Shopaholic.

Quite a nice list I think :)

Agree the list is less inspiring this year. I guess last year was full of people's all time favourites as it was the first year.

I have read 8 of the books. I loved Notes from a Small Island, The Book Thief and Room. Hated The Remains of the Day and The Time Travellers Wife. The others were Tale of Two Cities, Rebecca and The Road.
