44/100

Mercy · 25/02/2009 17:12

I've just realise I've got 2 of the books on that list and I've never even read them.

Tbh, half of them I wouldn't choose to read anyway (some set books, some just don't appeal)

spugs · 25/02/2009 17:34

31/100 but ive read loads of books that arent on there, my dh has only read 6 but thats because he likes adventure/non fiction/history etc

Claire236 · 25/02/2009 19:42

I can't believe I've only read 16 of these. Just finished Da Vinci Code having avoided it for ages & surprised myself by loving it. Will try not to judge books I haven't read in future.

Iklboo - I love Bogwoppit, recently read it

51 give or take things I've forgotten and things I think I've read but haven't.

By Christ there some shit on there though eh?

Anyone else find Hardy impenetrably dull?

Frankly I hate these things, anyway. I could produce a list of 100 books that I'd read all of, proving precisely nothing at all.

No Bulgakov on there either. Peasants.

PlumBumMum · 25/02/2009 20:41

18 but I have read a few of them more than once, I've read alot of Shakespear but didn't think that counted

Cloudspotter · 25/02/2009 20:42

I notice that Dickens and Austen are well represented, so if you are a fan of them, you clock up the points. Shakespeare only counts for one and then only if you have read the 'whole works'!

MamaHobgoblin · 25/02/2009 22:39

42, but some of them are multiples. Quite shamed that I haven't read some of those, really...

66 including EVERY SINGLE WORD of the Narnia books out loud and in the right order. And no, this wasn't for an audio book.

I never want to see a silver chair again in my life.

51 but what an odd list - there's some highbrow classics there and some classic kids books, but also some total rubbish, as well as several series books duplicated with individual books in that series (Narnia and The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe for example).

I have marked with a "-" those I started but didn't manage to finish (5)
35 unread.
Some I wouldn't want to read though - I find Charles Dickens very hard going, for e.g. and I have read other Dostoevsky books but I don't think Crime and Punishment was one. I have also read some Solzhenitsyn though!
