GWTW gone again! — 3 years ago

I just realized that Gone With the Wind has disappeared off the list. I would add it, but I’m not sure how.

Updates — 4 years ago

Added 1939 winner The Yearling which was missing from the list. Moved 1930 winner Laughing Boy to its correct spot in the list (between 1929 and 1931).

Added books — 4 years ago

I just added His Family and the Magnificent Ambersons back onto the list. I checked against the official list so it should be complete and I hope it stays that way. :)
