#ThreeListThursday #TLT @dabbe
We're on to list 3, all from the 1900s.
1. Survey link: https://www.listchallenges.com/1001-books-you-must-read-before-you-die-1900s
2. Share your score if you'd like.
3. Share your 3 favorites from the list or 3 that you might be interested in reading, or 3 you thought were horrible or a combo of whatever you'd like.
4. Tag if you want.
I'm tagging no one this time. ALL are welcome.

CogsOfEncouragement Ummmmm. I‘ve read 4 - Gatsby, Mrs. Dalloway, Ackroyd, and Room with a View. 4d
dabbe @CogsOfEncouragement I've never read DALLOWAY; did you like it? #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing). 😊 4d
CogsOfEncouragement I read it in 2017, gave it 3⭐️ and wrote this review: This was an incredibly slow read for me. A bit because of an event I helped to put on (kinda funny if you know what the book is about) but also because of the way Woolf wrote it. ⬇️ 4d
See All 40 Comments
CogsOfEncouragement I take no offense to the accolades it has earned, and I see why others enjoy it. I compare it to Beloved by Toni Morrison which I read a few months ago. Though I like both stories, I do not much enjoy reading this style. At the same time, I am glad I read both award winning books. 4d
MonicaLoves2Read I only got 2. The Great Gastby I read it in Hugh School. The Murder of Roger Akyrod I read last year. 4d
dabbe @CogsOfEncouragement Thanks for that input. I have always been scared to read her for the whole stream-of-consciousness thing, but maybe I'll give her a try. (edited) 4d
dabbe @MonicaLoves2Read ROGER ACKROYD was one of the biggest surprise reads I have ever had! #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing). 💚🩵💚 4d
Roary47 I got 5… I‘ve never even heard of most of them. 😅 Ethan Frome was a favorite in high school, Great Gatsby, the jungle, The Sun also rises, and Call of the Wild. (edited) 4d

Bookwormjillk 5 for me. Gatsby and Ethan Frome are favorites. Many of the others I‘ve never heard of. 3d
Librarybelle Ouch! I got 6. 3d
RaeLovesToRead I got 4..... FOUR????!!!!!! 3d
RaeLovesToRead I've not even heard of most of these. And I have the 1001 books book! 3d
Daisey 26 this week. I do find it interesting how even as the scores vary, most of us have seemed to follow similar trends in fewer on each of the 3 so far. Surely we‘ll go back up again on the next. 3d
JenlovesJT47 I got 4! 😭 3d
dabbe @Roary47 I'm with ya on the what the heck are these? 🤣 #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 3d

dabbe @Bookwormjillk 🎯🩵🎯 Love your choices, too. #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 3d
dabbe @Librarybelle Seriously, I wouldn't even put most of these on my TBR! I'm like 😳! #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 3d
dabbe @RaeLovesToRead You're right in there with the rest of us! 🤣 #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 3d
dabbe @RaeLovesToRead Now that's 🤣! Which edition? The one I'm using is the revised 2018, which (I think) includes a heckuva lot more world lit. 3d
dabbe @Daisey You da winner so far! #bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 3d

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick I clicked the link feeling confident, and I've only watched 23 of these (that I remember). Beauty & the Beast, As Good As It Gets, and Lord of the Rings are my favorites of the bunch, but I remember thinking that Born on the Fourth of July and Saving Private Ryan were both very good. The first 10 minutes of Up made my ugly cry in the bathroom for 20 minutes before I could continue, so there's that.... 2mo

New Survey: AP Literature Free Response Titles List #2 (1970-2024)

1. Survey link: https://www.listchallenges.com/litsy-ap-literature-free-response-titles-list-2
2. Share your score if you'd like.
3. Share your 3 favorites from the list or 3 that you might be interested in reading or a combo or whatever you'd like.
4. Tag a few!
Tagging those who played last week. 🤗

DGRachel I did better this time but still didn‘t beat the average. I got 19. Too many on my favorites list, many that I have tried, failed, and will never try again (not counted) and several I‘d like to read. Fun! 4mo
Cheryl_Russell 17/100. The Joy Luck Club, Love Medicine, Little Fires Everywhere, Little Women, Housekeeping, and Going After Cacciato all jumped out at me. Some were ‘Did I read this? I don‘t remember‘ (didn‘t count those). 4mo
PuddleJumper What's ap literature? 4mo
See All 56 Comments
dabbe @DGRachel Yay to beating your score last week! I hope I do the same. And don't say you “failed“ at reading them. You #hailedthebails! 🤩 I cringed at quite a few of these just by looking at their covers! 😂 Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
dabbe @Cheryl_Russell_BookNotes I say if you even thought you might have read it, it should count! 🤩 Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
dabbe @PuddleJumper AP stands for Advanced Placement, and it's usually a senior course in high school where, if a student takes the 4-5 hour literature exam at the end of the year (multiple-choice and 3-4 essays), she/he/they can receive college credit and not have to take English 101 or 102 in college. Also, if a student receives an “A“ in the class, it counts as a 5.0 re: gpa, not a 4.0. 4mo
MaleficentBookDragon I hated Ethan Frome soooooooo much! 4mo
MaleficentBookDragon Better than last week but still not a lot. 21 (lady week 17). 4mo
dabbe @MaleficentBookDragon You're still in fantastic company; pretty much most of us are between 5-30. Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
dabbe @MaleficentBookDragon That book is so flippin' sad! 😭 4mo
PuddleJumper @dabbe Ahh, ok we don't have anything like that in the U.K 4mo
BkClubCare 35 for me! With one title I am not sure of and a few that I skimmed or only *think* I have read (cough, Great Expectations, cough) 4mo
BkClubCare @MaleficentBookDragon - there are some HILARIOUS youtube videos by HS kids mocking that book. 4mo
dabbe @PuddleJumper I should have explained with the 1st list last week. Sorry about that! 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
dabbe @BkClubCare #yahooyou! Great Ex: 😂 Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
CogsOfEncouragement I checked off 14 again. Four were assigned to me in HS. 4mo
LA1 Rank 72 out of 81 with a score of 23 🤷🏼‍♀️ I didn‘t think I would get any but a few is good 😊 4mo
dabbe @CogsOfEncouragement There's quite a few on this list that I'm not even remotely interested in reading! 😂 Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
dabbe @LA1 You got more than a few, and you're in good company! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
Patchshank Thanks for the tag. I've read 10. There's a few there I own but haven't read like Kafka on the shore and kindred. 4mo
BookNAround 44 on this one so fewer than last week. 😉 4mo
LiseWorks I only read 14 and only because I had to either for school or it was on my tbr forever 4mo
TheLudicReader A whopping 18! 😬 4mo
peaKnit Doh! 10! lol 4mo
bibliothecarivs Seven for me this time, more than my four from last time. 4mo
dabbe @Patchshank I have quite a few, too. Maybe someday, right? 😂 Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo

dabbe @peaKnit Dohing is not allowed! 😂 Ya done good are in great company with the rest of us! 🤩 Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
dabbe @bibliothecarivs Some book covers on this list did not do much to make me want to read them! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
Bookwormjillk 20 for me. Ethan Frome and The Great Gatsby are two favorites I always think though people should wait until they‘re 30 to read them. Grapes of Wrath is another favorite. One of the few assigned readings I finished in school. Even then I loved to #HailTheBail 4mo
Texreader Ive only read 9, but can‘t remember all the Shakespeare I‘ve read and I question a few others. The best books from this batch were by women: Frankenstein, Kindred, The Handmaid‘s Tale, and In the Time of the Butterflies. 4mo
Texreader @dabbe Oh I was wondering! I‘m too old for all that “Advanced Placement” test stuff! 😉 We had a special English class for a few seniors who wanted advanced reading. And it was great. But that‘s all it was. 4mo
dabbe @Bookwormjillk Agree 💯. These books I feel are sometimes wasted on the high school kids who need to live more and suffer more to truly appreciate them. #Hailingthebail was a favorite activity of mine, too--plus reading CLIFF'S NOTES! 😂 Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
dabbe @Texreader Yay for women writers! Curious as to which ones you question, too! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
dabbe @Texreader Your senior class sounds a lot more fun than the AP one! We once had a class for seniors that was called Senior Contemporary Novels, and it was fabulous. Kids reading books and discussing a la a book-club format. Now, there's no room for exploratory classes like that. A true bummer. 4mo
Texreader @dabbe Oh that sounds lovely! 4mo
rwmg 28, better than my 21 last week.

Quite a few I know I've read but remember almost nothing about.
4mo
thebacklistbook 11/100 I'm sure I forgot some. 4mo
PurpleyPumpkin What a great book list! While I‘m familiar with many of these, I‘ve only read 27 which surprised me. Favourites are The Importance of Being Earnest, Little Women, and Fahrenheit 451. So many more I want to read!📚 4mo
tpixie 16/100. Apparently I go for the ‘trash‘ books instead of classics!! 4mo
Eggs 🧡🤗 4mo
dabbe @Texreader It truly was. 🤩 4mo
dabbe @rwmg Our brains can only remember so much when we read a lot of books, right? Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
dabbe @thebacklistbook I'm sure you did! 🤩 Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
dabbe @PurpleyPumpkin Love all 3 of your choices! I actually burned a book when I introduced F451 to my students. The kids were like 😳😱😝! It was a book that was already falling apart. Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
dabbe @tpixie No book is trashy! 🤩 Remember, too, that these are books that had to pass the “banned“ criteria... for example, I can guarantee no book by Toni Morrison is on the list, and she ain't trashy at all! You're in good company, m'dear! Most scores were between 5-25. Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
dabbe @Eggs 🩶🩵🩶 4mo
tpixie @dabbe 💙🩵💙 4mo
azulaco 39/100. Lots of assigned reading from high school and college. A couple that I actually have on Kindle and have never gotten to! 4mo

Thanks @dabbe & @TheSpineView for the #TLT #ThreeListThursday tags! 🤗

I guess I have watched & do watch a lot of Christmas movies!🤷🏻‍♀️🎄

My Top 4:
-Love Actually*
-Elf
-The Holiday*
-The Year Without a Santa Claus (fave from childhood love me some Heat Miser🔥& Snow Miser❄️)

Honorable Mentions I can‘t leave out:
-The Family Stone* 😢🩵
-The Grinch Who Stole Christmas (cartoon version because my Dad 💚)
-While You We‘re Sleeping*

⬇️

TheSpineView 🥰😊🌞 6mo
DebinHawaii
-Love Hard* (favorite newish❤️Jimmy O Yang)
-Die Hard (it is indeed a Christmas Movie!)
-A Christmas Story (so quotable. EVERY time I see a box marked Fragile “Fraa-jeel-aay! It must be Italian!"

* Means I‘ve already watched it this year & likely will again.

OK, I have beef with some omissions like Bridget Jones‘s Diary (it starts & ends with New Years but there is Christmas & Mark Darcy‘s reindeer sweater!) I watch it the week in between??

Good morning, everyone! The moment you have all been waiting for!! Our official #BookSpin number is TWELVE! Our official #DoubleSpin number is ONE!! I have thoroughly enjoyed looking at everyone‘s lists & am really looking forward to seeing your reviews!!

My next post will be the #BookSpinBingo card. I am NOT tagging anyone on that post!! If you want to bingo, please just check my profile for the card. This saves me having to double tag ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont‘d) everyone/keep track of who wants to bingo and who doesn‘t!!

I use the same tag list for the entire year, so if you would like to be added or removed, please just let me know. It takes me a while to tag everyone (there are over 200 of you!!!) so I will add “FINISHED” to the last tag batch so you know whether or not I missed you. If I did, it was completely inadvertent. Sometimes I just spell someone‘s username wrong. ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) As always, the link to the masterpost about how this challenge works can be found on my profile or here - https://thearomaofbooks.wordpress.com/bookspin-bookspinbingo-litsy-challenge/ - and the link to the Google Form where you can track your reads for the end-of-the-year-giveaway can be found here - https://forms.gle/4kTBMWAsCa9Cvmqs6

Thanks for playing, everyone!! Please know that I read EVERY comment on this post but don't always ⬇

I'm going to post the Bingo board, and then come back and start the tag list on this post. Happy reading!!!

Doing better than with the songs or movie challenges, I think.

dabbe Better than 80%! #yourock Thanks for playing and sharing! 🧡🍁🧡 8mo
Faranae \“66 of 211 · 31% You did better than 91% of users on this list\“. I blame the URC since so many of these are books I hate. 😂

Though also, the ALA often doesn\'t make an effort to distinguish between \“challenged from being in the school library\“ and \“challenged as required reading\“. And some of the books really aren\'t suitable for certain grades. A library can\'t have every book, either.
8mo
willaful @Faranae Definitely. I find it hard to find thorough info about banned books -- the extent of the ban, the reason for it, etc. 8mo
