We all love a list, don't we? This one's courtesy of The Guardian and my numbers are shockingly bad.... - 10 read - 4 TBR I scored better on Wendy's Goodreads list, in the thread further down, from last year (29). Maybe over the coming months I'll challenge myself to try and read some more of these....or at least the ones on my TBR...  How did everyone else do? www.theguardian.com/books/2019/sep/21/best-books-of-the-21st-century |

I've read 30! I was amazed - I thought I didn't read that many recent books. But most of the ones I've read were closer to the beginning of the century.
Some of them, like The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time, I could have sworn were pre-2000! But apparently not...

I've read 27 and have 5 on the TBR.
An odd list. I wonder what the criteria were for including books on the list? Many I've never heard of, most never made the best-seller lists (and there must be a reason for that!).

I've read 12 of them, but none recently.
And like other people on here, some I've never even heard of, let alone read.

I've read 20. What a wonderfully random list.
