And that's why I have 43 million books on my "to read" list.
Bwahahahahaha!!! Tis a far better thing to have them on your "to read" list rather than on your bookshelves.

I used to just get whatever books sounded evenly remotely good that were free for the Kindle. Then I went back and started looking at some recently when I was stuck trying to decide what to read. Delete probably a couple hundred with more to go.

Now that I have looked at the actual result with the top 100 article, I'm sure I'll be saving that one and going back again and again and again. I was lucky enough that I only had a couple of friends who actually bothered to do the list along with me.

Interesting, thanks. I've read Charlotte Temple, but whether it's "best" is debatable.
