The BBC allegedly believes most people will have only read 6 of the 100 books here; how do your reading habits stack up?

Bold those books you've read in their entirety
Italicize the ones you started but didn't finish
Underline the ones you want to read

1 Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen
2 The Lord of the Rings - JRR Tolkien
3 Jane Eyre - Charlotte

Not only is there the "book" vs "series of books" thing (which leads me to believe that it's not from the BBC - I don't think the BBC would make that mistake, but they're also:

(a) comparing a short story/novella with a major work (in terms of length); you can't compare, say, The Great Gatsby, with The Lord of The RIngs.

(b) making an even HUGER error; take a look at numbers 33 and 36. #36 is PART of #33...

Epic fail!

They should have used The Screwtape Letters if they wanted another CSL book.

It's been messed with. The actual BBC list is here.
