Now, I'll have to actually count...I stopped after 20 (my occasional competitive streak comes out).
I'm impressed by how eclectic and recent some items on this list are (Rowlings, Tolkien, Douglas Adams, Khaled Hosseini, Dan Brown, Magaret Atwood, Frank Herbert, Salman Rushde, Iain Banks, Roald Dahl and many more I wouldn't expect). I didn't read a single Harry Potter because we had a radio show by a woman who read children's books (and did voices and all) who did the first four books. The one I was assigned in high school that I never got through was Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad.
Does the "no plays on bookshare" extend to public domain like Shakespeare? And is there really a single volume called the Complete Works of Shakespeare? That would make reading War and Peace child's play by comparison.
