Books of the Century: A Hundred Years of Authors, Ideas and Literature | 
Joining in! Not bad considering I didn‘t read much until 2012 and have a severe recency bias.
Really surprised there were none by Maggie O‘Farrell or Lauren Groff or many other authors. Too many by Saunders and Ward. They‘re both fantastic authors, but I feel like they should‘ve chosen no more than one from each author for a wider variety. 🤷🏻♀️🤔
peaKnit I agree, was surprise by multiples of Ward. 4mo
LiteraryinPA I agree that a cap of one per author would have been better. 4mo
mdemanatee Was really surprised not to see Groff 4mo

BarbaraBB You didn‘t read much until 2012? I didn‘t know that! 4mo
BarbaraBB I agree with one book per author. Or one series like the Ferrante one, instead of multiple entries. 4mo

Megabooks @BarbaraBB I did read some in my pre-vet school years, but with working 2 jobs, going to school, and having 1-2 volunteering things, I didn‘t have time for more than a book a week if that. It was about the same in vet school. I mostly read nonfiction, which still fits what I read more of in stressful years (like this one)! 🙃 4mo
BarbaraBB A book a week is still a lot. But I get what you say. I read less too during uni but for me that was in another century 🤣 4mo
