May. 28th, 2004 03:19 pmOkay, I'm having a totally boring day at work, so I'm going to post a totally boring journal entry. I've been fooling around online because it kind of looks like I'm working, and I found all kinds of book lists. It's silly of me, but I'm always fascinated by these type of lists and I love going through to see which books I've read... So here are a couple of the lists I've found, with the books I've read in bold.
( Pulitzer Prize Winners )
( Booker Prize Winners )
( Modern Library's 100 Best Novels of the 20th Century )
( College Board’s 101 Great Books )
( Most frequently banned books in the ‘90s )
At this point I should probably say that I don't put a whole lot of stock in lists like these; many of the books that are in bold are things that I did not like, and many great books are not represented. Still, it's kinda fun, and it does show me some definite holes in my reading that I should work on repairing. And hey, who knew I had read so many banned books?
