Book meme nicked from B-gata

Bold the books you’ve read COMPLETELY, italicize the ones you’ve read part of, and star ☆ the ones you honestly plan to read. Watching the movie or the cartoon doesn’t count. Abridged versions don’t count either. According to the BBC if you’ve read 7 of these, you are above the average!

Total Completely Read: 52/100  (I think...I lost count halfway down.)

A rather bizarre selection on this list...several books by Austen and Dickens, and LOADS of books missing that should be on there instead.  It reads like an authorised list for schools rather than a list of "jolly good books to read".  (And what the heck is The Da Vinci Code doing on there amongst a load of classics, that's a fairly crap book on a whole number of levels...?)
