#TLT #ThreeListThursday should say 1900s actually.
I‘m surprised I am not a bit higher. Really read many around the WWI era.
Room with a View , Howards End EM Forster fantastic. I love James Joyce, you don‘t need to read Ulysses, read Portrait of An Artist as a Young Man, The Jungle , Great Gatsby of course. E E Cummings Enormous Room is an impressive book about the WWI era.

dabbe I fixed the error; thanks for catching it. #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing). 😊 3w

The Secret Agent | Joseph Conrad

ABYSMAL. I never thought I‘d be grateful for The Great Gatsby, but at least it enabled me to check one box. Hemingway was another and I‘ve already forgotten the other two. I‘ve owned copies of three of the pictured books (two for 30 years!) and lost all desire to read them. The only one on the list I still want to read is Conrad‘s The Secret Agent. #tlt #threelistthursday You‘re killing me @dabbe 🤣😭🤣

dabbe This list was horrific IMHO. Most of them I was like 😳! Never even heard of most of them. And I agree with your choices as far as they've been on the TBR, but I really don't want to read them, especially THE JUNGLE. Too many other more enjoyable ones out there! We'll have to find some better lists! #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing). 😊 3w

7/100. Better than I thought I would get considering my history with these lists. 🤣

I don‘t know that any of them will make my TBR stack. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I‘ve read so much American literature because that‘s what I taught. So many titles here that I should have read!!

dabbe And I'm an American-Brit lit kind of gal! World lit? 😳 #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 3w

#ThreeListThursday #TLT @dabbe

There is no in between in this survey, I had either never heard of the book or I had read the book and a lot of the ones I did read I didn‘t like. My collection of 1001 Books to Read Before You Die is very different. It was nice to see E M Forster, Evelyn Waugh, James Joyce, and Virginia Wolfe. Special shout out to The Charwoman‘s Daughter for making the list.

dabbe It seems this 2018 version went WAY out of its way to include a lot more world literature, which is my weak point. 🤣 #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 3w

3 on TBR
Edith Wharton
Ford Maddox Ford
Chrome Yellow by Huxley (I had not heard of this!)

dabbe For what it's worth, I adore Edith Wharton, especially THE AGE OF INNOCENCE (movie, too!) #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 3w
ChaoticMissAdventures @dabbe Age of Innocence is the only one of hers I have read! Maybe I will crack into more of hers... I don't own any so it will just probably be something I feel shame for not doing 😂

dabbe @ChaoticMissAdventures ETHAN FROME's excellent, too, and much shorter! 🤩 3w

This is too funny. I thought that the 1700s would be my worst showing, and my scores would improve by the 1900s. But the 1700s were my best score, and they've gotten progressively worse. If I'm 100% honest, I don't know about some of these titles. 🫠 My only thought besides shame after this quiz is that I would like to read more Edith Wharton and Virginia Woolf. 😉😏😂
#tlt #threelistthursday @dabbe

ChaoticMissAdventures I want to read more Edith too! It's so interesting that the books of the 1900s have been a struggle for most of us. I wonder why that is. I really expect to see more Fitzgerald and Agatha Christie. 3w
dabbe @lil1inblue @ChaoticMissAdventures Oh, we are FAR from finished with the 1900s ... many more still to come. And my best score was in the 1700s, too! 🤣 #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 3w
