I'm ashamed to say I've only read 22 of these books, BUT I've read 8 of the top 10, so that's pretty good, right? 17 of these books are on my To Be Read List. A few others need to be added to the list, so I'll keep this around as a reference.

They cheated by using series! If I count the series that I chose not to finish, I've read 31 on that list. There's a few more on that list I mean to read... sometime. :D
I cannot believe Harry Potter isn't number one! And they did cheat! :D
Haha. I haven't read Hunger Games yet (atrocious, I know), but I've heard it's amazing. I can't imagine it's better than Harry Potter though ;)
I was cracking up at the fact that so many of the top 20 books were my fav, To Kill A Mockingbird, Pride and Prejudice, A Wrinkle in time (which my kids love), chronicles of narnia, little women. I can't believe they forgot about Song of Solomon, The Heart of Darkness.
