    I've read 24. There's quite a few I'd like to read but a few I probably wouldn't. A few I've read more than once, such as The Handmaid's Tale.
    I read Gone with the Wind many years ago when I was a teenager, I wonder if it would still seem as good, views have progressed in huge leaps since then.
    I reread Anne Frank's diaries recently and still as poignant as when I read them as a teenager, if not more so.
    Midnight's Children and Middlemarch I really need to get to.
    Happy Reading.

    Watching your book videos reduces my stress. Good to see you again on TH-cam :)

    Congratulations on launching your business 🎉❤ So nice to see you appear on my feed!! 😊It was fun going through this list with you. I have definitely read less of these than I thought I would have. 📚 I know this wasn’t on here but East of Eden by John Steinbeck is one I think you might like. Quite a gritty and messy book but I loved it.

    I read a lot of Graham Greene's novels when I was in my late teens ... and recently revisited End of the Affair and found it as powerful as I remember it when I first read it all those years ago. If you ever read it, would be interested in what you think. I also really loved Heart of the Matter and Power and the Glory.

    29/100! I'm glad I'm not the only one who didn't like On the Road. I keep hearing people rave about it, but I just can't see it.
    The books that interest me the most from the list are Gilead and Beloved.
    Since I know you like magical realism, I'd push One Hundred Years of Solitide in your hands.😅I'd really be interested in what you think of it. It's probably one of my favourite books of all time.
