Apparently these are the fifty top books on www.whatshouldireadnext.com:

Bold the ones you've read, italicize the ones you've not but plan to, and cross out those you will never read.

I am totally not much of a reader...I spend too much time reading music!

The Da Vinci Code - Dan Brown
The Catcher in the Rye - J.D. Salinger
The Hitchhiker's

Very cool seeing so much Science Fiction and Fantasy on this list. Most lists of this type that I have seen tend to be a bit more snooty.

This is an awesome list!
...but you're planning to read Sylvia Plath and not memoirs of a geisha, lion witch and wardrobe, clockwork orange, catcher in the rye, pride and prejudice, or a billion other books I could spout off that you haven't read yet? takes all kinds I guess, but Sylvia Plath makes me want to put my head in an oven.
oh wait. no no. Makes me want to put HER head in an oven, but she was one step ahead of me on that...
