BBC book meme

[evilhat]

Via waterowl, apparently out of this list of 100, the BBC believes most people have only read 6 of them.
Copy the list, mark the ones you've read. My answers are below.

No, the BBC didn't say that most people have only read 6 of these.

Hang on...the complete works of Shakespeare and Hamlet? Ditto the Chronicles of Narnia and The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe? I'm not overly impressed with this list. Besides, The Da Vinci Code? Five People You Meet in Heaven? I'd be encouraging people not to read those.

And three Thomas Hardy titles? Three? Really? Like anyone really needs to read Tess AND Jude?
