But just to let you know, this has been a terrific project. I'll be sharing the full results of what books were listed and I'll provide the top 25 books in order of how many people mentioned them and where they put them in their list.
If you don't like the order of these book titles, feel free to weigh in on my other thread and I'll take your information into account for the final.
As of right now, the Top 20 look like this:
1. To Kill A Mockingbird
2. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
3. The Grapes of Wrath
4. The Lord of the Rings
5. Slaughterhouse Five
6. Lord of the Flies
7. The Catcher in the Rye
