55 on the Amazon list. It's a weird list, though, although the fact that I happened to read random things like Persepolis, The Omnivore's Dilemma, Me Talk Pretty One Day, and Moneyball boosted my score.

I like the list, but I disagree with its description. Moneyball, Me Talk Pretty, Gone Girl, and Kitchen Confidential are all books that I liked, but they don't really belong in anyone's lifetime "bucket" list. Nor do many others on the list.

However, what I like about the list is that it is a good list to turn to when you want to read something new and maybe break out of a rut. It has good answers to the question "What should I read this weekend?", but its answers to the question "What are the 100 most books everyone should have read in their life?" are not as good.
