100 Books...

Yes, it's that time of year again, Angus and Robertson's Top 100 Books for 2010 (as voted by the general public) was released recently (okay, nearly 8 weeks ago, I was a bit slow on the uptake.) Browsing through the list I realised quite quickly that many of the books are the same as the ones voted for last year and the year before... Other than by being stranded on a desert island with only the hundred books there is no way I could devour them all in a year, however, over two years, (discounting those I've already read and noting that quite a few will be repeated in the years to follow) I do believe that by the end of 2013 I could quite possibly have read the 100 books on the list that year. I just don't know if I could bare to read Harry Potter (at least there's only one of them on there this year) or the Twilight saga. :o Yes, you DID read those words. Maybe by 2013 they will have dropped of the list... wishful thinking?

Here's the list...

  1. I hope all the vampire books are gone from that list by 2013... or even next year *fingers crossed*
    good to see Mockingbird still on the list - best book ever.

  2. I don't mind the "real" vampire books, just not a fan of the sparkly ones! :P

    Agree - Mockingbird is one of the best ever; I recently bought a 50th anniversary special edition, beautiful!
