100 Books to read in a lifetime...

Today I came across a list of The 100 Books to Read in a Lifetime as selected by Goodreads readers.  I was curious to see how I have done on the list.  In reading through it, I was not surprised by how many of the books are on my 2014 reading list, since I made up my list according to 'great' books I've never gotten around to reading.  

The list follows.  Ones I have already read are struck through.  Ones on my 2014 list are in red.

Yikes.  If I counted correctly, I have only read forty of those on the list.  Some I loved. Some I loved so much that I have read them repeatedly.  Others I wish I could have the hours back to spend on something else. 

I will look into some of the ones I haven't read yet, but some I refuse to, because I couldn't care less.  (Yes, Harry Potter fans, I'm talking about them...one was enough. And the Odyssey...no...just no.)
