100 Books to Read In A Lifetime

I have already known of this for a while, my Best Sellers teacher showed us and it was interesting. I made a mental note to relook at it to see how many I actually read, though knowing myself I forgot all about it. Then finally after so many months I finally made the effort and look and see how many I did read from the list.

Not to my surprise I knew I’ve wouldn’t read or known at least 90 of the books on the list. I gave myself benefit of the doubt that I would have at least read 10 of the books and to my disappointed. Out of 100 books on the list I read 6 out of 100, now before you all judge me let me explain. On the list there were some books I wanted to read but never had a chance to read yet. So if I read those books and add it to the number of books I already read it probably reach 13 at best, I’m not good at adding in my head without my calculator.

That aside on the list I saw some books I expected that would make it on, likes Fahrenheit 451 and Pride & Prejudice. Though the books I saw on the list like The Fault in Our Stars, The Hunger Games, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Book 1 and The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Book 1). These are considered popular books in this generation while the other book were written a long time ago and are considered classics. I like that Amazon tried to bring a nice mix of the classics and new to try and encourage people to read these.
