I have read either 44 or 45.
I think I read The Wind in the Willows as a child but I'm not sure.
Oh I can add a half to it since I read half of Gone With The Wind. I thought of going back to it but I never did and that was thirty or so years ago. I did not care much for it.

I feel your pain. Most of these books that I have read were required reading in school/college. This list completely put me to shame, and I read constantly. I guess I have spent way too much time pleasure reading, and should atleast devote some of my time to classical endeavors.ParanoidIdealDodo wrote:just 2 and a half...haha...
The Catcher in the Rye, JD Salinger
A Christmas Carol, Charles Dickens (partially)
The Alchemist, Paulo Coelho
