Books? What are those?
I stole this from Mallory... :)
Apparently the BBC reckons that most people will have only read 6 of the 100 books here.
Copy and paste - put an X next to the ones you have read.
I've read 23, which is roughly 25%. Not too bad considering I read about 12 of them in the last year alone. Hopefully I'll get some more read this year. :)
