Sounds like a good idea. As soon as Harry lets me know where the English duplicate thread is I shall contribute to that one.

I'd like to bet that we end up with a very different list to the one the OP posted.

Hmmm... Can't seem to spot the thread that I had in mind, off hand, but it was definitely in the Reading Recommendations forum, and it was a very long thread! Of course, you're very welcome to start a new thread if you wish (that same forum would be the best place for it), but I thought the original thread would have been of interest (if I could find it!). Apologies for the delay in replying - it's bugging me that I can't find the thread to which I originally referred you!

30 and a half. I studied English literature, which accounts for many of the classics on the list. but I never fully read Ulysses.

Thanks Patricia. I think that those two both refer to another list (of 1001 books) and not to MR members recommendations.

Thanks Dreams. That looks more like what I was thinking of. When I pull the results of mine together, I'll incorporate the results from that one as well (but maybe do two versions of the results, one with and one without those results - I do like to make work for myself).
