So, following on from that 100 books meme...

Name ONE book that wasn't listed that you feel should have been.

I'll kick off with The History of Love by Nicole Krauss.

::mumble mumble mumble::

There was so much missing off that list it's hard to think of just one that should have been on it - like, apart from the bible there are only plays and fiction? Grrr!

I'd go for P. G. Wodehouse's Jeeves books - all of 'em... it seems only fair if we're expected to plough through the whole of the bible *g*

I love your choice btw. I haven't read it yet - but it's in my bag just waiting for me to get stuck somewhere.

PG Wodehouse! I love his books! I can't believe I didn't think of him myself. Actually, I did while I was puzzling over the list, then went blank when I saw Gilly's post about it.

Have you seen the TV series with Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie? I didn't think they'd be any good, but they were brilliant (IMHO)!

LOL - I bought them on DVD for my mum - it's just her sense of humour *g* - and like you I didn't expect to like them, but ended up loving them. They're wonderful to curl up with when things get poopy *g*

Really? I always felt they were born to play those roles. I have them all on DVD - glad to see they convinced you anyway. :o)

Oh! Oh! Oh!

PGW; the master, I'm SO not worthy! EXCELLENT choice(s) - I'll add the Psmith books too.
