I've read barely any, both on the "official" list and on the lists on here. Lots to add to my ever growing TBR, but it's all subjective isn't it? I tried East of Eden which everyone on here seems to love, but I wasn't bothered by it. I have discovered far more good books on Tattle than on these pretentious lists for my tastes.Loving the lists!! Haven’t read many on them either - I think this is all showing me that despite having read loads I clearly need to read more
I’ll do mine later once I’ve reviewed my word document

(it’s why I’ve never seen titanic )Awww your no 10. Makes me want to read the whole of Swallows and Amazons all over again. I absolutely loved all their adventures as a kid.
Or very well known books in general.That's absolutely fine! It's lists of people's favourite books, well known or not, "classics" or not.I checked my 5 star/favourites lists but I'm afraid none of then are recommendation worthy. It is mostly full of books I know to be bang average but I just enjoyed them very much
1. There is no judgement here! We wanna know everyone’s favourites. None of this is about what’s “objectively” the best. I don’t think we will be seeing too much Ulysses here. (I still think it’s utter pretentiousness)I checked my 5 star/favourites lists but I'm afraid none of then are recommendation worthy.

The book curse is broken, I spent almost all Sunday reading. Richard Osman is getting a fruit basket from me for keeping my attention this long when my brain felt like a chihuahua on c after spending weeks scrolling on my phone. Can't wait to finish it this evening and start the next one.

My list is basically books that evoke a strong emotion in me regardless of whether they're technically well written or influential or whatever.I checked my 5 star/favourites lists but I'm afraid none of then are recommendation worthy. It is mostly full of books I know to be bang average but I just enjoyed them very much

I think your 10 favourite books are definitely recommendation worthy. If you enjoyed them, then other people will too? I just thought of the first 10 books that ive either reread a lot because i loved them so much or plan to. I actually have thought of loads more too! Do your list and be proud of it!I checked my 5 star/favourites lists but I'm afraid none of then are recommendation worthy.

I know this fear! I absolutely loved Cold Comfort Farm when I first read it, and listened to it last month, and it just didn't hit the same
I’m planning to reread East of Eden before the Netflix version comes out, but have a very real fear that it won’t live up to my memory of it! The stupid thing is I’ve already read it more than once but you just never know!
) the fact that something sticks with us over time automatically elevates it and makes it a contender for a top 10 list. (Still working on mine btw! I’ve filled 8 slots so far!)Same, my 5 star books are ones i enjoy remember, and want to re-read but i know some of them are not the best books overall.
unless i count like all harry potter books etc as individual ones 
If it makes you feel more like contributing - my list is definitely going to feature YA fantasy and something from the ‘chic lit’ (hate that term) genre alongside the more ‘serious’ e.g. handmaids taleI checked my 5 star/favourites lists but I'm afraid none of then are recommendation worthy.

I read Less, and when I'd finished it, I couldn't actually decide whether I'd liked it or not.
There’s been a sequel which I was very excited to read, it’s what prompted me to reread Less, and now I’ve just abandoned the entire endeavour. I think Less won a big award too. Oh google tells me it’s the Pulitzer!
Yeah, I saw there was a sequel, but frankly I just couldn't be bothered to get it. Didn't love the first. Saw no point reading the sequel.
