Back to the top 100:
(Does watching a version of the book as a movie count? 'Cause if it does I've experienced over half of them.) Also why was Mitch Album's Top Five People... on the list, but Tuesdays with Morrey wasn't? I've read that one.
1. The Harry Potter Series
Who doesn't want to live the life of a wizard?
2. To Kill a Mockingbird
Read as a class in 10th grade and then watched the movie. The movie -- BLAH! The book -- fantastic!
3. The Bible (if selected verses count)
4. Shakespeare (OK i've only seen them, not read them, but hey Audio Book, right?)
5. Chronicles of Narnia (All of them on the CDs given to me by Mom - excellent)
6. Animal Farm (One of my favorites)
7. The DaVinci Code (Makes you really think -- could that really be the Holy Grail?)
8. The Secret Garden (Again-- read as a class -- this time in 3rd grade and then watched the movie. The book - WAY BETTER! But then I think that's typical. However I do think the most recent remake is a good one.)
9. A couple of the adventures of Sherlock Holmes.
10. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
11. Les Mis (Actually, I only read part of the abridged version. Yes I know, "Abridged is of the devil." But have you seen the size of the unabridged?)
I plan on reading Atonement because I already own it, but as for the rest of them-- I hadn't really thought about it. For now, I'm sticking with Me Talk Pretty and The Alchemist.
Talk at ya later.
