Yikes, I've only read 12! I'm glad I beat the expected 6, but I still have a ways to go. A good goal to have to broaden my library with these classics.

I only have read 20! But, to be fair, I am not really a fan of many classics.

I completed 16 of the books. Everything on that list doesn't fancy me.

23, provided the one which reads 'Cloud Atlas - Charles Mitchell' is supposed to read 'David Mitchell'? Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure the author's name is David...?

I read YA books, almost all the time. I am surprised to see 17 books I have read, on this list.

37 for me. Did anyone find it funny that they listed the Chronicles of Narnia AND the Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe? I would think most people could get 6 books out of the list from when they were forced to read them in school. :)

Andy, a lot of times books are better even when you know how they end. Also sometimes movies change major points so they don't flow at all like they did in the movie or they have a different feel with some of the characters.

I've read 12 off the list, it kind of surprised me that I've only read that many because half of those were on to read list

I've gotten through 32 of these. Most of them are thanks to my college English classes or the free classics available on Kindle. Love the free kindle books.
