smilerbabeuk Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 (edited) is it churlish to point out that this is not quite the same list that they have on the BBC website? doesn't matter greatly, there are only a few changes. freakishly, I've read 39 of both lists, but they are not the same 39 titles.

jennybaby Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 my total is 33! maybe 35 as I couldn't remember if I'd read the other two Jane Austens - and if you can't remember maybe that's the same as not having read any. I was surprised there was nothing by Kafka on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parenthesis Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I was pleasantly surprised at how many of the books on the list I have read. Though, I must own that many of them were read simply because they were required reading at some time or other during my educational years. The bolded titles are the books I have read: 1 Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen 2 The Lord of the Rings - JRR Tolkien 3 Jane Eyre - Charlotte Bronte 4 Harry Potter series - JK Rowling 5 To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee 6 The Bible 7 Wuthering Heights - Emily Bronte 8 1984 - George Orwell 9 His Dark Materials - Philip Pullman 10 Great Expectations - Charles Dickens 11 Little Women - Louisa M Alcott 12 Tess of the D’Urbervilles - Thomas Hardy 13 Catch 22 - Joseph Heller 14 Complete Works of Shakespeare 15 Rebecca - Daphne Du Maurier 16 The Hobbit - JRR Tolkien 17 Birdsong - Sebastian Faulk 18 Catcher in the Rye - JD Salinger 19 The Time Traveller’s Wife - Audrey Niffenegger 20 Middlemarch - George Eliot 21 Gone With The Wind - Margaret Mitchell 22 The Great Gatsby - F Scott Fitzgerald 23 Bleak House - Charles Dickens 24 War and Peace - Leo Tolstoy 25 The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy - Douglas Adams 26 Brideshead Revisited - Evelyn Waugh 27 Crime and Punishment - Fyodor Dostoyevsky 28 Grapes of Wrath - John Steinbeck 29 Alice in Wonderland - Lewis Carroll 30 The Wind in the Willows - Kenneth Grahame 31 Anna Karenina - Leo Tolstoy 32 David Copperfield - Charles Dickens 33 Chronicles of Narnia - CS Lewis 34 Emma - Jane Austen 35 Persuasion - Jane Austen- 36 The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe - CS Lewis 37 The Kite Runner - Khaled Hosseini 38 Captain Corelli’s Mandolin - Louis De Bernieres 39 Memoirs of a Geisha - Arthur Golden 40 Winnie the Pooh - AA Milne 41 Animal Farm - George Orwell 42 The Da Vinci Code - Dan Brown 43 One Hundred Years of Solitude - Gabriel Garcia Marquez 44 A Prayer for Owen Meany - John Irving 45 The Woman in White - Wilkie Collins 46 Anne of Green Gables - LM Montgomery 47 Far From The Madding Crowd - Thomas Hardy 48 The Handmaid’s Tale - Margaret Atwood 49 Lord of the Flies - William Golding 50 Atonement - Ian McEwan 51 Life of Pi - Yann Martel 52 Dune - Frank Herbert 53 Cold Comfort Farm - Stella Gibbons 54 Sense and Sensibility - Jane Austen 55 A Suitable Boy - Vikram Seth - 56 The Shadow of the Wind - Carlos Ruiz Zafon 57 A Tale Of Two Cities - Charles Dickens- 58 Brave New World - Aldous Huxley 59 The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time - Mark Haddon 60 Love In The Time Of Cholera - Gabriel Garcia Marquez- 61 Of Mice and Men - John Steinbeck 62 Lolita - Vladimir Nabokov 63 The Secret History - Donna Tartt 64 The Lovely Bones - Alice Sebold 65 Count of Monte Cristo - Alexandre Dumas 66 On The Road - Jack Kerouac- 67 Jude the Obscure - Thomas Hardy 68 Bridget Jones’s Diary - Helen Fielding 69 Midnight’s Children - Salman Rushdie 70 Moby Dick - Herman Melville 71 Oliver Twist - Charles Dickens 72 Dracula - Bram Stoker 73 The Secret Garden - Frances Hodgson Burnett 74 Notes From A Small Island - Bill Bryson 75 Ulysses - James Joyce 76 The Inferno - Dante 77 Swallows and Amazons - Arthur Ransome 78 Germinal - Emile Zola 79 Vanity Fair - William Makepeace Thackeray 80 Possession - AS Byatt 81 A Christmas Carol - Charles Dickens 82 Cloud Atlas - David Mitchell 83 The Color Purple - Alice Walker 84 The Remains of the Day - Kazuo Ishiguro 85 Madame Bovary - Gustave Flaubert 86 A Fine Balance - Rohinton Mistry - 87 Charlotte’s Web - EB White 88 The Five People You Meet In Heaven - Mitch Albom 89 Adventures of Sherlock Holmes - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle 90 The Faraway Tree Collection - Enid Blyton - 91 Heart of Darkness - Joseph Conrad 92 The Little Prince - Antoine De Saint-Exupery 93 The Wasp Factory - Iain Banks 94 Watership Down - Richard Adams 95 A Confederacy of Dunces - John Kennedy Toole 96 A Town Like Alice - Nevil Shute 97 The Three Musketeers - Alexandre Dumas 98 Hamlet - William Shakespeare 99 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - Roald Dahl 100 Les Miserables - Victor Hugo Total = 69 One book on the list that I haven't read, but would very much like to is Birdsong by Sebastian Faulk. I've read some very enthusiastic and positive reviews...each subsequent review of Birdsong I read only further cements my wish to read the book. A book for my 'To read' list.

Timstar Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 only read 9 need to get reading seeing as I have a fair few of them in my TBR and wishlist That is exactly the same as me! Different books though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I posted in this thread three years ago and had read 8 or thereabouts. Despite my insistence at the time that I'd take a closer look and improve on that total, I haven't since looked at this list. I am pleased to announce that even without looking at the list I've now managed to read 25 (if my counting is correct). I'm quite chuffed with that, but I've marked down this summer to read a lot more classics, so hopefully my total will be improving even more soon.

Argon9 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I've simply taken out all the ones I have not read since we all know whats on the list by now. Since i have a horrid taste in literature I've read around 300-400 more books who are not on this list. A different nationality and speaking 2 languages besides english also helped ^-^ 1 Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen 2 The Lord of the Rings - JRR Tolkien 4 Harry Potter series - JK Rowling (except the seventh book) 6 The Bible (Catholic school, had no choice in the matter. I read the Koran too, just out of spite) 8 1984 - George Orwell (long ago) 10 Great Expectations - Charles Dickens 14 Complete Works of Shakespeare (either for school or adaptations/abridged) 16 The Hobbit - JRR Tolkien 25 The Hitchhiker�s Guide to the Galaxy - Douglas Adams 29 Alice in Wonderland - Lewis Carroll 32 David Copperfield - Charles Dickens 33 Chronicles of Narnia - CS Lewis 36 The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe - CS Lewis (isn't this a part of the chronicles of narnia? Why is it on the list twice?) 39 Memoirs of a Geisha - Arthur Golden 40 Winnie the Pooh - AA Milne (for my little brother) 41 Animal Farm - George Orwell (long ago) 42 The Da Vinci Code - Dan Brown (I dont even know why I thought reading this was a good idea) 52 Dune - Frank Herbert 54 Sense and Sensibility - Jane Austen 56 The Shadow of the Wind - Carlos Ruiz Zafon (and the follow up "An Angels Game") 58 Brave New World - Aldous Huxley 70 Moby Dick - Herman Melville (though I read the second half abridged) 71 Oliver Twist - Charles Dickens 72 Dracula - Bram Stoker- 73 The Secret Garden - Frances Hodgson Burnett 76 The Inferno - Dante (wasn't it called "divine comedy?) 81 A Christmas Carol - Charles Dickens 89 Adventures of Sherlock Holmes - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle 94 Watership Down - Richard Adams 97 The Three Musketeers - Alexandre Dumas 98 Hamlet - William Shakespeare (I dont think I really understood it though) 99 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - Roald Dahl (and its sequel... glass elevator? ... or something. It has been to long ago) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
