How many have I read? I've only heard of one and I haven't read it.

    I do mean to read it at some point haha. I read a decent amount, that's why I I'm surprised by their list.

    There are only a couple on there I have actually read, a few more I've heard of. The Cormac McCarthy books I enjoyed, insofar as one can enjoy those subjects (The Road and Blood Meridian). The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K LeGuin is one I'd recommend to fantasy/scifi fans. And when I was younger I didn't enjoy it, but I always find myself engaged with Hemingways stories even when I think I won't be (A farewell to arms).
