1001 things to read

[sawcat]

Found this list mentioned on shelfari, so had to have a look. May have seen it before, I because I remember looking at one that is extremely biased in favor of the last century, and hardly touches the earlier years. And holy repetitive authors Batman! ....but I was bored. Bold I've read, Italics I own/want to read/want to reread

19. The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time - Mark Haddon - Stupid book I didn't like it at ALL

Ah there's a movie of Owen Meany? I shall have to look into that since I'm reading it right now.

I'm not a fan of Dickens either. Not in books or movies. Some from school I might revist to see if it was the whole assigned reading = hate issue. But will probably only try ones I've liked the movies of mostly.

Lord of the Flies and Heart of Darkness are both ones read for school and pretty well dispised. Then when Lost came about, I kept waiting for them all to go crazy and try to eat Hurley. Tis why I gave it up in the second season, going a bit Lord of the Flies XD

Yeah Simon Birch is a movie adaptation of Owen Meany.
