How was your first week back at work? I was thinking about you.

This is a random list indeed. I can't imagine an authoritative top-100 would have quite so many English authors!

"The Big Read reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books THEY'VE printed."

--books THEY'VE printed....i think is the key term there....
