#tlt #threelistthursday @dabbe

I S.U.C.K.! For the first time, I actually counted how many books I actually recognized: only 28/100! That means I have never even heard of 72 of them! 😱 Of the nine I actually read, here are three faves:
1. THE LONG GOOD-BYE: love Philip Marlowe and Chandler.
2. THE GO-BETWEEN: beautifully written, reminded me of ATONEMENT (though this one came first).
3. THE LORD OF THE RINGS. #ofcourse

peaKnit I‘ve heard of 14! Read 6…oof. lol 1mo
ChaoticMissAdventures I don't think it is you. We are all big readers and many of us are in the book world. I think a lot of these if we looked are not even being published any longer and so by default did not hold up across generations 1mo
RaeLovesToRead I love how these lists are so obscure we are now doing marks for recognised haha 1mo

RaeLovesToRead RIGHT. I'M GOING IN. (Wish me luck...) 1mo
RaeLovesToRead I've read 8. But I maintain that quite a lot of the books on this list are made up and don't actually exist. 1mo
kspenmoll I have only read 9. Favs: Excellent Woman, Barbara Pym, The quiet American, Graham Greene, If This pis a Man, Primo Levi 1mo
dabbe @peaKnit Right there with ya! 🤣 Thanks for playing and sharing. 💙📚💚 1mo
dabbe @ChaoticMissAdventures I also think it's because a lot of them are from all over the world, and at least in my case, I pretty much read American/Brit lit. It's rather challenging to find decent translations as well. 1mo
dabbe @RaeLovesToRead I had to do SOMETHING to make us feel a wee better! 🤣 1mo
dabbe @RaeLovesToRead 🎯🤣🎯 Thanks for playing and sharing. 💙📚💚 1mo
dabbe @kspenmoll Three more for the TBR! Thanks for playing and sharing. 💙📚💚 1mo
Read4life I‘m consistent. Consistently BAD!!! Just 6 that I‘ve read and 19 that I‘ve heard of before. 😳 1mo
dabbe @Read4life I'm with ya, sista! 🤣 Thanks for playing and sharing. 💙📚💚 1mo

The problem with conformity in education is that people are not standardized to begin with. #ofcourse #commonsense #creativity

#NuYear Pretty obvious choice for #Iassassin My favorite spy/art restorer/ ex mossad/ heartthrob Gabriel Alon

Cathythoughts I‘m going to read this author in 2018. He sounds good 👍 8y
GlassAsDiamonds I‘ve been seeing his books pop up here and there and wondering if I should read them... may have to start. 8y
RachelAmphlett Love the Daniel Silva books - such an inspiration! 8y

Cinfhen Glad to find another Daniel Silva fan @RachelAmphlett 😍This is definitely an #autobuy series for me @Cathythoughts @GlassAsDiamonds it‘s a story that I‘m fully invested in.... 8y
TrishB I would have been massively disappointed if you hadn‘t done these 😁 A series you‘ve got me into! 8y
bobregina I want to read this all series, but there are so many books to read 😫 I really enjoyed the artist killer, though 8y
DGRachel 😍😍 8y
Mdargusch Hmmm. I have never read any of these. So you‘re saying I should? Do I start at the beginning? Or are they stand alone? 🤔 8y
Blaire Ooh. This sounds like a series I would love!! 8y
FountainBookstore @Mdargusch I think you can start anywhere having read most of them, but he is becoming increasingly politically preachy in the more recent years. I don't enjoy that trend. 8y
RebelReader Love, Love, Love!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ 8y
DGRachel @Mdargusch I would read these in order. They build on previous experiences and there are things that happen in later books that are spoilers for earlier ones. Can you read them out of order? Probably. But I think you‘d enjoy them more in order. 8y
Melissa_J I really need to check this series out. It sounds like something I‘d enjoy. 8y
Mdargusch Thanks @DGRachel - so then what is the first book? 8y
DGRachel @Melissa_J @Mdargusch the tagged book is the first in the series. I think there are 18 total right now. I‘m on #16 - almost caught up. They‘re so good. 8y
Cinfhen I agree with @DGRachel it's best to read in order although the author does a good job keeping u informed of back stories in case you've missed some @Mdargusch the picture above is the books in order. There are 17 books so far but they read quickly @bobregina 😁 8y
Cinfhen I hope u guys give it a try @Melissa_J @Blaire most libraries should have the series.... 8y
Melissa_J I‘ve placed a library hold on the first one!! Also placed a hold for Orphan X recommended by @DGRachel 8y
Cinfhen I own Orphan X @Melissa_J but haven't read it yet, I saw @DGRachel post too and now plan on moving up (edited) 8y
Cinfhen I'm happy you were able to get library copies!!! @Melissa_J 8y
DGRachel @Melissa_J Hooray! I hope you enjoy both books as much as I did! 8y
Melissa_J @DGRachel my loan for Orphan X has already come up, less than two hours after I placed it on-hold. Now that‘s quick! 8y
DGRachel @Melissa_J It must be a sign from the book universe! 😂 8y
Cinfhen @Melissa_J can't wait to hear your thoughts on Orphan X 8y
Dragon 💚👍😀 8y
