amazing, must have been written by someone who shares Galts opinion that movies pre-1972 are all unimportant and should be destroyed. Fuckin native son, I hate that book so much. No fuckin clancy novels?
I read 27 out of the 100.
5-100
Watchmen was a comic. That counts ?
their list sucks.
interesting:
Watchmen
Alan Moore & Dave Gibbons
thats a graphic novel
out of the 27 I can only say maybe 8 were good. Plays should count too though like tennese williams and such.
I've only read two of those.
Does movie adaptations count? I guess not, then still two.

at least 5 of them had to have been mandatory school readings. I never would have read native son if it wasnt required.

why dont people just knock off the shit and stop saying "graphic novel"?
it's a fucking comic book!
i have read 14.
where the fuck is :
Lord Jim
Heart of Darkness
Brave New World
Frankenstein
just to name a few.
whoever asked why clancy wasnt on the list should have their eyes gouged out so that they can never read again.
sorry, but it's far from a comic book.
spider man is a comic book.
Watchmen is a novel.
does it have pictures in panels? its a fucking comic book. dress it up in whatever pretentious , "i dont read comic books" words that you want to, its still a comic book.
Quote:the Watchmen series, published by DC comics
Yeah I said that earlier in the thread.
I was speaking more in regards to its subject matter - but yea, technically its a book of pages consisting of pictures in panels.

I said clancy in a sarcastic manner.

Animal Farm
Catch 22
Catcher In The Rye
The Grapes Of Wrath
The Great Gatsby
Invisable Man
Lord Of The Flies
Naked Lunch
1984
On The Road
Rabbit, Run (and not on the list, Rabbit is Rich)
Slaughterhouse-Five
The Sound And The Fury
The Sun Also Rises
Tropic Of Cancer
To Kill A Mockingbird

lord of the flies is another one of those damn school readings that I hated.
