The BBC cleary doesn't have a very high opinion of Britain's reading ability. They have compiled a list of 100 books, including classics, modern classics and more current bestsellers, and suspect that most Brits have read only 6 out of the 100 titles, which I think is pretty shocking. I was slightly dismayed to have found that I have only read around 33 of the books listed, which isn't even half- and I am a self confessed lover of literature! When I finish my degree this summer I'm definitely going to make it a priority to read the rest.
