I've actually READ the following books: 4 Harry Potter series - JK Rowling -- except the last one, I can't bring myself to read it for some reason. 7 Wuthering Heights - Emily Bronte 8 Nineteen Eighty Four - George Orwell 13 Catch 22 - Joseph Heller 25 The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Douglas Adams 33 Chronicles of Narnia - CS Lewis 36 The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe - C.S. Lewis 42 The Da Vinci Code - Dan Brown 48 The Handmaid's Tale - Margaret Atwood 49 Lord of the Flies - William Golding 58 Brave New World - Aldous Huxley 72 Dracula - Bram Stoker 87 Charlotte's Web - EB White 94 Watership Down - Richard Adams 98 Hamlet - William Shakespeare 99 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - Roald Dahl
I've seen the following in Play form... 100 Les Miserables - Victor Hugo
I've seen the following in movie adaptation form (some of them have MANY versions), and while it definitely be argued that's not the same, I'm familiar with the story and so don't want to read the book version. 1 Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen 2 The Lord of the Rings - JRR Tolkien 16 The Hobbit - JRR Tolkien 21 Gone With The Wind - Margaret Mitchell 29 Alice in Wonderland - Lewis Carroll 52 Dune - Frank Herbert 54 Sense and Sensibility - Jane Austen 65 Count of Monte Cristo - Alexandre Dumas 70 Moby Dick - Herman Melville --- Melville is far too dry to actually READ, though I've read Billy Budd. YUCK! 71 Oliver Twist - Charles Dickens 83 The Color Purple - Alice Walker 89 Adventures of Sherlock Holmes - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle 92 The Little Prince - Antoine De Saint-Exupery 97 The Three Musketeers - Alexandre Dumas
These are the only ones in the list I'd like to read still: 41 Animal Farm - George Orwell 62 Lolita - Vladimir Nabokov
slightly above average, but not as well rounded as you and Cat
