I can't resist list challenges, especially the ones about books...

...but this is an incredibly weird list:

I mean, there are the obvious blockbusters that people love to mock, like Twilight, 50 Shades of Grey and The Da Vinci Code, but otherwise a lot of the significance escapes me; they seem to be American popular political/psychological hits, plus the odd work of Nazi propaganda that a lot of history students will actually have read because they're studying the period.

Anyway, I've read 12/100, and I've got Peyton Place on the shelf waiting for me to get round to it...

Ha! I also have read 12 although probably not the same 12.

I am sad that Stanyan Street and Other Sorrows is on that list, though. I love that book.

I feel like every list of this sort has books that make you go, "Oi! That was good!" :D
