Bahahaha, I actually commented on the BBC website when I saw the article. My comment was something like, "I've read them all, some multiple times, so bite my bum!" Whenever a new "the definitive books everyone should read" list comes out, I see it as a challenge.

Also, WTF, "A Picture of Dorian Gray" isn't on there is so stupid. That's, like, my third favorite book of all time.

I know! These lists always tempt me to sneakily delete some out of it that I don't like and replace them with ones I do... :p

Seriously, like "The Time Traveler's Wife" and "Moby Dick." Hate those.

I'm not a fan of them either >
