A Blog Around The Clock

Books

Go here and here for context, then discuss the idiosyncrasy of such lists. There are books there I have not touched, but I have read equally long and boring ones by the same authors. I have read parts of some, or kids/abridged versions of others. Here are those I read from beginning to end in original, unabridged versions:

2 The Lord of the Rings – JRR Tolkien
4 Harry Potter series – JK Rowling
8 Nineteen Eighty Four – George Orwell
16 The Hobbit – JRR Tolkien
18 Catcher in the Rye – JD Salinger
24 War and Peace – Leo Tolstoy
25 The Hitch Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy – Douglas Adams
29 Alice in Wonderland – Lewis Carroll
31 Anna Karenina – Leo Tolstoy
32 David Copperfield – Charles Dickens
40 Winnie the Pooh – AA Milne
41 Animal Farm – George Orwell
58 Brave New World – Aldous Huxley
70 Moby Dick – Herman Melville
71 Oliver Twist – Charles Dickens
87 Charlotte’s Web – EB White
