ReplyDeleteWow. I've only read 2 1/2 of them.
ReplyDeleteCompared to me, you've read A LOT of them! Seriously, I've only read three...how pathetic is that? :)
ReplyDeleteHoly cow! That is quite a list to read. I've read a few but don't think I'd make it trying to read the whole list.
ReplyDeletegood idea...I'll do a pulitzer update soon...thanks
