I'm browsing through the tagged book & as I read the detailed Shakespeare entry I was reminded of the Hollow Crown, based upon The Henriad. I watched it right after I read all 4 plays & I loved it. It remains one of my fav. Shakespeare adaptations, although admittedly I'm not a fan of Henry V. I only recently learned that several years ago there was a second series based on the War of the Roses. Anyone watch the second series? Is it worthwhile?

What does a girl who has an endless TBR pile of books need? Why, another book to tell her of 1,000 more titles she must read!

May I live a loooong, bookish life. 😉

https://www.listchallenges.com/if-youve-read-10-of-these-books-youre-very/list/1...

An interesting mix on this list. I‘ve read 99/500, have another 40-50 on my shelves waiting to be read, and another 40-50 I‘d like to get around to at some point.

Desha Thanks for putting this out there...it was a fun challenge!! Interesting to see how many books I still want to read on the list...I had 103/500 but like you said many more on my TBR! Hope you have a great day! 📚📚📚 3y

Well read audiobooks (anything by Jim Dale)
Any book club that discussed books

Nov 17 Prompt: Books! I‘m so very grateful to have books and for my love of reading. What are you currently reading? I‘m listening on Mr. Penumbra‘s 24-Hour Bookstore. How fun would it be to have a secret library?
Gratitude
1. Books and more books
2. Audiobooks
3. Ebooks
4. Libraries
5. Friends who love to read
6. Book bags to carry all my books
7. Bookmarks
8. Thank you to all the books I‘ve read in my life

meghathecloud Thank you for tagging me even though I have not been able to post. Love the prompts, and today's is obviously an easy one😄 3y

Barrett Bookstore is hosting a virtual Battle of the Books today at 6 CDT. James Mustich is the Emcee. A link for details can be found on Mustich's Twitter.

Vivlio_Gnosi There are sooo many top notch suggestions in that book. 4y
vivastory @Vivlio_Gnosi Agreed. I love this book. 4y
Vivlio_Gnosi @vivastory it was slightly discouraging to think "I may not live to read all these books!" ? haha 4y

MsMelissa I love these long lists of must read books! I always fail badly at the number I‘ve actually read though 😂 4y
vivastory @Book_Fiend_Melissa I'm the same 😆 I always have the intention to read a lot more of the list, but I'm simply too much of a mood reader 4y
ValerieAndBooks How does his list compare to the 1001 Books list? 4y
vivastory @ValerieAndBooks It has poetry & plays on it, making it a lot more balanced than the 1001 books (which should really be called 1001 novels to read etc) also a lot of nonfiction. Roughly half the book is nf. I think it's a more surprising list than 1001 books & the formatting of by author name makes it a lot of fun to read through. You never know what you'll find on the next page. 4y
ValerieAndBooks @vivastory hmmm!! I will have to look into this one, then. For ideas, definitely, not as a goal to try to fulfill 😊 4y

The previous list prompted me to try this other one, and it was interesting. I‘ve worked as a bookseller off and on for the last 20 years; I have a BA in English and an MA in Humanities - and I‘ve never heard of half of these titles.

Not the list I expected, kind of a weird assortment. Quite a few are books I started and have yet to finish, or they‘re already on my shelves or TBR. And there are some you couldn‘t pay me to read.

https://www.listchallenges.com/1000-books-you-may-have-actually-read/list/25

Thoughts?

ImperfectCJ I was confused by how many Nicholas Sparks books were on there. I wonder how they picked the titles. 4y
FantasyChick If we were going by titles I own but haven't read yet, I would have done amazing! As it stands, I've apparently read 12% of their list. 4y
ravenlee @ImperfectCJ I think it‘s based on Goodreads ratings, which would explain why Sparks, Stephen King, and a couple other authors seem overrepresented (rabid fans). 4y
ravenlee @FantasyChick me too! It would at least double my score. Even just including books I started but didn‘t finish would give me a big boost. 4y

James Mustich edited this delightful daily 2020 calendar, a perfect gift for the book lover in your life (of course including yourself). Although it does include entries from the tagged volume, he's also updated it with books published since 1,000 Books was released. I also like that it's not the same format throughout.

Hey, #NYRBBookClub friends, look at what I just came across in the tagged book! Two prior entries was yet another NYRB publication: Peter Handke's "A Sorrow Beyond Dreams." It'd be interesting to tally the NYRB entries in Mustich's selection. Sounds like a good project for a slow day at work!

I got all caught up, but then fell behind again on #30junebooks. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Day 6: bookworm problems. All my TBR stacks all over! I do have a plan (sort of) to get through all the stacks. It‘s just that the stacks seem to be never-ending because I keep ordering new ones despite all the ones I already have that I need to read. And then the fact that I stay up a bit too late reading, so I drink enormous amounts of coffee! 😂

It‘s a vicious cycle.

wideeyedreader I know your pain with stacks! Every time I cut mine down, they grow again! 5y
LibrarianJen I have beautiful hand built bookshelves and I still have stacks everywhere. Also, people who don‘t rely on copious amounts of coffee baffle me. 5y

Pickpick

The thing I liked about this tome was that he was all over the map with genres, fiction and nonfiction. There were a lot of titles that I haven‘t seen referenced in a book like this before, so that was a treat. Not a rehash of anybody else‘s list. Definitely unique. Mount TBR continues to grow!
