Reading and BBC
The BBC says that most people only read 6 of the 100 books in the list below.
Well, having read 25 out of 100 is not so bad apparently ... Although you probably are not many people on this list I would add that to my bed there. It 'a matter of time, too bad you have too much to do during the day, why would read one of my favorite occupations if you do not work.
Now read the list and see how many have you read ...
