woke up in london yesterday;

Bold the ones you've read COMPLETELY, italicize the ones you've read part of. Watching the movie or the cartoon doesn't count. Abridged versions don't count either. BTW, according to the BBC if you've read 7 of these, you are above the average.

i could stand to read more books )

If you've got any recommendations from the list, let me know! I'm planning on rereading Doyle and Pullman, and then probably going to try and finish up some of the italics of the books I just forgot to keep reading, like Lolita, maybe start some more Austen THAT IS NOT PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, dabble in the curious case etc etc

That being said, some of my recommendations! Middlemarch is super big and long and heavy, but it reads like a countryside Dickens, which means pretty nice to read overall! The size might be daunting, but I can't say it was a bad read. One Hundred Years of Solitude and A Prayer for Owen Meany are both good reads, and I'm pleased they made the list. Dune is great if you like sci-fi, but I've read another one of Kazuo Ishiguro's work and I also highly recommend him, for his style and creative storytelling. I hope I can read his other work too haha crying
