What, nothing by Rosamund Pilcher? I was surprised I've only read 47 out of the total 100. I read a lot, but I tend to read in groups. If I like one book I will look for the rest of the author's books and read them too. I've read everything Fitzgerald, CS Lewis, Steinbeck & Michener wrote, plus all of the OZ books. (I know I'm forgetting some favorites.) I was also surprised that there's nothing by Hemingway on the list.
