If I tagged you, it is because I thought you would enjoy this due to a love of reading. Don't worry, I won't be offended if you don't have time or choose not to complete it. :)

The BBC believes most people will have read only 6 of the 100 classics listed here.

Instructions: Copy this into your NOTES. Bold those books you've read in their entirety, italicize the ones you started but didn't finish or read an excerpt. Tag other book nerds. Tag me as well so I can see your responses!
