According to Amy over at Crazy, Random Happenstances, the BBC believes that the average person has only read six of the one hundred books on this list. I thought it would be interesting to see which ones I had read, so I went through the list as well. And I figured I'd share the ones I have read in their entirety with you. Some are parts of series that I'm still working on so I didn't list them. I did better than I thought I would have! And I saved the list on my computer, so now I have a goal to work toward in completing the list. It's definitely full of quite a few books that I want to have read at some point in my life.
