How many have you read?

Fluff showed me something on face-book today, It was a note from a friend of hers.

"Have you read more than 6 of these books? The BBC believes most people will have read only 6 of the 100 books listed here.."

This was something we both wanted to look at as Fluff is a book worm but so are a lot of people that we know, This is the top 20 of the list totalling 100.

1 Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen

2 The Lord of the Rings - JRR Tolkien

3 Jane Eyre - Charlotte Bronte

4 Harry Potter series - JK Rowling

5 To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee

6 The Bible

7 Wuthering Heights - Emily Bronte

8 Nineteen Eighty Four - George Orwell

9 His Dark Materials - Philip Pullman

10 Great Expectations - Charles Dickens

11 Little Women - Louisa M Alcott

12 Tess of the D’Urbervilles - Thomas Hardy

13 Catch 22 - Joseph Heller

14 Complete Works of Shakespeare

15 Rebecca - Daphne Du Maurier

16 The Hobbit - JRR Tolkien

17 Birdsong - Sebastian Faulk

18 Catcher in the Rye - JD Salinger

19 The Time Traveler’s Wife - Audrey Niffenegger

20 Middlemarch - George Eliot

Now I was never that into books while I was young and its only something I have really gotten into them till about 5 or 6 years ago. Now I can read a book in about 4months (as long as I'm Travailing a lot), but most of the ones I had read are not on this list.

I think its funny that the Harry potters books (7 books) come as one while "33- Chronicles of Narnia - CS Lewis and 36 - The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe - CS Lewis" come as 2 different books.

One of 4 bookshelf in our flat and we still have books of books back in Sweden... I think BBC are wrong about this!
