book meme!

 The BBC believes most people will have read only 6 of the 100 books here. How do your reading habits stack up? Bold the ones you’ve read! Italicize the ones you’ve partially read!

27 for me, too.

Why is Shakespeare's Complete Works listed if Hamlet was going to get a random individual mention?

[realistic_squid]

the list is flawed. I find it strange that it lacks some books that I think are pretty important but has multiple books by the same author? honestly I don't think I could take another hardy novel...

Mein Gott if I have read more than 3 of these I will be amazed

Complete:
02 The Lord of the Rings - JRR Tolkien
22 The Great Gatsby - F Scott Fitzgerald
39 Memoirs of a Geisha - Arthur Golden
41 Animal Farm - George Orwell

Partial:
04 Harry Potter series - JK Rowling
05 To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee
06 The Bible
10 Great Expectations - Charles Dickens
16 The Hobbit - JRR Tolkien

That's actually way more than I expected.
