[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here are my comments for what they are worth, lol:

Didn't Read, No opinion: 
The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, Aged 13 ¾, Sue Townsend -- I also didn't read, sorry
Tess of the d’Urbervilles, Thomas Hardy -- depressing as hell, there's an early 80's movie 
The Code of the Woosters, PG Wodehouse -- haven't read this but he wrote terrific comedies, also movies and Broadway shows including Anything Goes (along with Cole Porter)
Middlemarch, George Eliot -- long but great
The Secret History, Donna Tartt -- haven't read but The Goldfinch, which she wrote, is amazing
Cold Comfort Farm, Stella Gibbons -- there is a movie if you don't want to read the book, which is hilarious
Dune, Frank Herbert -- absolute classic, also a classic sci-fi file 
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, Philip K Dick  -- this is what Blade Runner was based on 
The Big Sleep, Raymond Chandler -- another great book that is also a great movie with Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall
Dangerous Liaisons, Pierre Choderlos de Laclos -- haven't read the book but I hope everyone has seen the movie!!
The Leopard, Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa[/quote] -- haven't read it[/quote]
