CPL's Book a Week Challenge discussion

We've almost reached our 100 books. Did you enjoy reading through the classics- both past and modern? I wish I had the time to read all of them; there were definitely a lot of good ones on this list.

Our final grouping are:

1. Moby Dick by Herman Melville

2. Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens

3. One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez

4. A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving

5. The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett

6. The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon

7. Ulysses by James Joyce

8. The Wasp Factory by Iain Banks

I've read two on this list: Oliver Twist and The Secret Garden. I really enjoy the The Secret Garden. I've actually read it a few times. Oliver Twist was alright. Dickens' books are hit or miss with me; and this one was mainly a miss.

I've always wanted to read Moby Dick but every time I started, I could never finish. That's probably because I always want it to be more about whales and it's not.

Have you read any of the books? If so, what were you thoughts? Let us know!

I've read three: Oliver Twist, The Secret Garden, and One Hundred Years of Solitude. I've read both Oliver and The Secret Garden a few times. One Hundred Years was a fascinating book, not sure I'd reread it though (but I'm glad I read it).

Wow, I don't think I've read any of these! I, too, have always wanted to read Moby Dick, just to say I did. :)
