You put me to shame. 4 and a half!!

5. To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee (studied it at school, hated it)
8. Nineteen Eighty Four - George Orwell
25. The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Douglas Adams
49. Lord of the Flies - William Golding (didn't study it at school, unlike most people)
74. Notes From A Small Island - Bill Bryson (only half, just couldn't get into it)

I was going to read Animal Farm but it wasn't available in the library when I went. Catcher In The Rye is on my "to read" list. Right now, I'm half way through Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon. Apart from getting through a third of 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea a couple of years ago, it's the first book I've read in three years!

4 and a half is better than none!

I wasn't expecting it to be so high for me actually. It's made me think that I really want to reread loads of these books - half of them I probably couldn't remember the plot of anymore. Especially The Bible ;-)

90. Does that make me sound geeky/boastful? I just tend to read books rather than watch tv/films/do anything else!

29 ain't bad. My list reads scarily like the national library of feminist literature - I'm going to have to go and watch some mindless porn to get my masculinity back I think ( ... )
