1001 must read books


After seeing people adding the '1001' tag to books in their libraries on LibraryThing I finally decided to try and track down an online version of the original book, with the vain hope of having read a reasonable proportion (certainly of the more modern books) listed. Oh what a surprise I got!

This wonderful spreadsheet I found shows me that, based on the 2008 version I've read 53 books, plus an additional 10 from those taken out of the original 2006 version....... only another 20 or so to read every year before I pop my clogs then!

Still it has helped me populate my Amazon wishlist (circulated to lovely friends and family in advance of Christmas) in case anybody is ever stuck for a present. Only another 600 titles to browse to see if I like the look of them :0)
