BBC Reading List

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.

NOTE: There are a few series listed on the list. Rather than having the entire series count as one book, I’ve broken them down. As such, this list will be longer than 100.

65 — 1 year ago

I suppose I am not “most people”, as I have managed to read 65. The rest are on my ever-growing to read list.

Can you post a link to a BBC webpage for this? I can’t seem to find it. I just find various blogs talking about it.

:)
