I mostly loved the 22 books I‘ve read from this list and feel inspired to read more. Although, I have to admit that I DNF‘d their top pick. 🤦🏻‍♀️ #nyt #nytbest100

AmyG Same here. I bailed on it. 🤣 1y

rachelk @AmyG I really think it was a weird choice for the top spot! 🫣😂 1y

AmyG I think quite a few books were odd picks. Whatever. 🤷‍♀️ 1y

Suet624 😂😂😂 I just saw this post. Yeah, such a weird choice. 1y

My TBR from #NYTBest100: about 12 are available in audio in my library and weren‘t already on my list.

And here‘s my TBR from the #NYTBest100 list! I just postponed a library hold for Demon Copperhead, and eight others are on my shelves already—maybe I‘ll get to those sooner, maybe not 😆

I was eyeing these #NYTBest100 posts with envy yesterday, sad because the list was paywalled—thank you to all those who posted the tip for a gift link via Modern Mrs. Darcy!

Some of these I loved, some not so much—but I do love a good list, whether I agree with the choices or not. This was unsurprisingly focused on lit fic, but it was nice to see Fifth Season and some graphic novels make the list as well.

Not bad, but some of these I hated 😂 so many are on my TBR shelf. Weird only wolf hall is splayed.

Thanks @Bookwomble for helping me find the link.

I‘ll put a link in the comments so you can play too! #nytbest100 #nybest100

I'm unreasonably pleased at my lack of interest in contemporary literature!

julesG I can relate. 🤣🤣 1y

Bookwomble Also, that the NYT could place the book spreadeagled and cracking the spine is doing my head in! 😵‍💫🤯🤬 1y

IndoorDame 1 is such a weighty number, and you certainly picked 1 well worth reading! 1y

Kitta I don‘t know how many I got (I don‘t have a subscription), I did it on the archive and it doesn‘t tally but maybe 20? Is there another way to access this list? 1y

Bookwomble @Kitta I've tagged you in @Bookwormjillk 's post which gives a link to take you past the NYT paywall 😊 1y

Ruthiella I love it! 👏👏👏 1y

The_Book_Ninja 🤣Just Wombie doing his own damn thang👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 1y

Bookwomble @The_Book_Ninja Wombling free 😉 1y

The_Book_Ninja @Bookwomble 🦊(Closest emoji to a Womble) 1y

Bookwomble @IndoorDame It was good to see that NYT picked at least one that we could agree on with them 😄 1y

Bookwomble @The_Book_Ninja I'm a bit of a vulpophile, so I'm good with that emoji 😊🧡🦊🧡 1y

The_Book_Ninja @Bookwomble you taught me a new word there. I have regular visits in my garden. They get a lot of hate round here unfortunately 1y

Bookwomble @The_Book_Ninja I kinda made it up, then checked and found it was already established 😄 Sadly, there's a lot of misinformation about urban foxes, and of course, they were here before our cities were, so really foxes have a human problem rather than the other way around. 1y

The_Book_Ninja @Bookwomble My fox (I own him as he comes into MY garden) is very timid. He comes and eats the bread I throw out for the birds but runs away if I try and say hi. Last year they brought cubs into the garden and I was shocked to see they were gray. Never seen that before. Although I see a silver fox when I look in the mirror 😏 1y

Bookwomble @The_Book_Ninja Gosh, they must be quite young cubs - their fur starts off grey and their russet colouring comes through fully at about 8 weeks. Maybe you're just waiting for your next moult before your adult fur comes in! 😄 1y

The_Book_Ninja @Bookwomble and here‘s me thinking I had limited edition Folio Foxes😶 1y

#nytbest100 I‘ve read 32 and I have to say their number 1 is not my favourite on any list 🤣🤣🤣 and I know I‘m in a minority. I have 7 in my crazy stacks around the house to read and many more on my wishful thinking TBR. It is odd that there are repeats by some authors and categories of books are missing

ShelleyBooksie I have read none of the top 20 - apparently I am not well read. Lol 1y

mcctrish @ShelleyBooksie and I think the #1 book is a stinker so here we are 🤣🤣🤣 1y

Susanita It wasn‘t my least favorite, but I didn‘t especially like the No. 1 choice either. 1y

Deblovestoread I am part of your minority. 1y
