18/25 Not bad, since I am not American and I read a lot of English novels instead + European ones.

8/25 and I'm a literary scholar? lol...some I read in high school and some I chose to read after graduation at the encouragement of my brother. My mother had a copy of Lolita which she hid in the linen closet so I wouldn't read it, lol. I never did read it but I found and read her copy of Peyton Place and Valley of the Dolls...I was a voracious reader when I was younger and would read anything I could get my hands on (even cereal boxes) but now I prefer to read something light and funny.

I've only read a few books in my life. Just because I'm not a fan of reading, doesn't make me wrong. These writers are messed up.

Not quite sure why I get an answer marked incorrect when I say I haven’t read a book- if I haven’t read it it should be marked with a ✔️

What about great books written in another language, in my case Spanish, as important as the ones you mentioned?

I have read a lot of classics, but I don't think all of these titles qualify

c'mon quiz club. get back to what you used to be. when it was fun and you would learn a thing or two. reading "great" proscribed books doesn't make any one a genius And kerouac's On the Road is not genius work. c'mon

7/25 A literary scholar??? I think not! I read a lot, but usually just what my English teacher would have called 'escape fiction.'
