In which I copy T.S. without the rant
Jun. 26th, 2008 10:13 am"The Big Read reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they've printed."
1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.
2) Italicize those you intend to read.
3) Underline the books you LOVE.
4) Reprint this list in your own LJ so we can try and track down these people who've read 6 and force books upon them ;-)

Fab. This is a strange, strange list and that's not even counting the repeats. I didn't say I loved any or intend to read any of the others, and while this makes me an awful person, I couldn't tell you that I actually read that particular Austen, only that I read one and it made no impression on me whatsoever because it was for school and I've hated every single book I was forced to read for school [even those I picked off a list!] with two exceptions. The no love/intention was because I actually intend to read quite a few of those [simply to get my mother off my back] but... I've got time. And if I don't, I sincerely doubt my biggest regret will be not having read half that list. Just sayin'.
