12 plus...currently reading Memoirs...I have the Kite Runner but it remains unread...wheres The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole & Frankenstein?...lol

66 for me but some I didn't want to read. I wonder how they got the list. Some I never heard of, and some I would put on it but are not there.

I started reading this thread last night, and it made me stew. Having now actually read what it is and how it was compiled I feel a little bit better, having only read 40 or so. I realise that it is not a slur on my education , upbringing etc etc.

However, I am baffled that some of the bestselling authors are not on the list. Stephen King? Danielle Steel? Not a fan of either but pretty prolific bestselling riters not to feature. Agatha Christie? Personally, love John Grisham, Marian Keyes, Ruth Rendall, Patricia Cornwell. I am a self-confessed bookworm and yet 3/4 of the books on this list I wouldn't be interested in. Hamlet????? I loved 4 hrs of Kenneth Branagh in it at the RSC but otherwise???? I wonder what real profile of the people who were polled is - I can't believe the average person stopped in McDonalds on a Saturday thinks that War & Peace is their favourite book

I've read 65 and a half (I'm reading The Bell Jar at the moment, although I've had it on the shelf for 7 years)

13 on that list. I did attempt Middlemarch recently but I just couldn't understand it .

I have a long way to go!

43/100 (plus some "parts of") for me but others on the list that I really do want to read

37. It is a bizarre list. Some of them I refuse to read (cough Harry Potter cough) because i'm a book snob.

Surprised they included Federacy of Dunces, though it is REALLY good.

think thats 67 - tbh it's counting that's always been my problem

I've read 76 of them or as an earlier poster said, 78 if you count some of the bible and Shakespeare. I've got an English degree though so some were not read by choice or I suspect could have been properly digested at 3am after half a packet of pro plus and twenty cigarettes. Those were the days!

I cannot count how many. a good list though. most of the ones I didn;t tick I want to read (when kids leave home I guess) except for the da vinci code.

76 here too, another 6 or so that I got half way through (e.g. War and Peace) and then gave up on. An interesting variety on the list, I haven't read all the posts so maybe I've missed how the list was put together - I don't see why THESE books in particular.

I've read 50, but I seem to have lost my appetite for fiction since having the DCs 14 years ago.

Time became so precious, and I really resented wasting it trying to get into novels which often turned out to be sub-standard.

I have read 31 of them, and own more but have not read yet.

Surprised A Confederacy of Dunces is there, I HAVE read that, but was under the impression it was wierd and not well known!
