The Guardian's 1000 Books to Read- 100 Additions From Readers - Page 2

When The Guardian's newspaper published their 1000 Books to Read list they asked readers to submit titles that they might have overlooked. A month later they published 100 suggested titles from readers. Here they are in order of category: 1-5 are Comedy, 6-14 Crime, 15-27 Family & Self, 28-47 Love, 48-59 Science Fiction & Fantasy, 60- 71 State of the Nation & 72-80 War & Travel. There are 20 further suggestions in no particular order but at 4 are Sci-Fi/Fantasy, & at least 3 are Crime. From classics to little-known & recent publications. Though heavy on British titles (which you's expect as The Guardian is a London rag), maybe interesting books to choose from. Enjoy!
