Book list

- - -

(This I got from a Facebook note.)

The BBC/The Big Read believe most people will have only read 6 of the 100 books here. How do your reading habits stack up?

Instructions:
1) Look at the list and put an 'x' after those you have read.
2) Add a '+' to the ones you LOVE.
3) Star (*) those you plan on reading.
4) Add a '-' to the ones you HATED.
5) Tally your total and put it in the title.

My x's: 001, 003, 004, 005, 008, 010, 013, 014 (mostly his tragedies...), 015, 018, 025, 041, 042, 044, 049, 057, 061, 066, 081, 089, 092, 100

My +'s: 013, 044, 089, 092
