How many have you read?

Apparently the BBC reckons most people will have only read 6 of the 100 books listed under the cut. How many have you read?

100/100

But then I did set myself the entire list (there's a second half) as a reading challenge XD

That's very interesting! You've restored my faith in the BBC. ;)

It seems to be identical with a list from the Daily Telegraph from 2008.

I've read 64 - lucky for me there were so many children's books on the list. The one that makes it hard for me to take this list seriously is Bridget Jones' Diary. I mean, really?

I got an even 50/100. (Bad me for not having finished Les Mis.) Complete rundown is at my journal, if anyone's interested.
