So how did I do? 25/106 Definitely read (23.6%). add in the unsures (3) and the one which was a TV series first, gives us 29/106 or 27.4%. So perhaps some more reading to do. Though there must also be a reason why people don't read these books. Perhaps because they're illiterate drudges, perhaps the books are boring.
