jacquez, below is the Locus 100 best SF and fantasy novels.
It surprised me, but upon counting up I've read the same percentage of these as compared to the BBC's Britain's best-loved books list. I've been an avid science-fiction and fantasy fan since I was 5 years old. So I thought I'd score higher overall on this list than the Beebs. But no - in fact I think it works out as exactly the same.
I think that I must have more eclectic reading tastes than I realised. Hmm, maybe I could examine my book collection and see what percentage falls into which category - 'literature', 'SF', 'fantasy', 'historical' etc.
::eyes collection of approximately 4,000 books::
Or maybe not.
( Can't say that I agree with all the choices on the list, and some IMO are in the wrong category. But then - again - I didn't vote for the list. )
