7/10 for me. I’ve not read “think and grow rich”, The Alchemist, or Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-Tung. Why? Because none of them appealed to me 🙂

Oh goodness, what does it say about me. The only one I have read cover to cover is Think and Grow Rich. Though I have read large chunks of the Holy Bible but not sure I’ve read every verse.

Oops! Slap me down. Not ready any of them fully. Of course, have dipped into the Bible in my youth. Don’t like fantasy tales, so wouldn’t buy them. Would rather see the movie than read the book of Gone With the Wind. Will deffo read diary of Anne Frank one day. Have dipped before and watch a lot of war documentaries on TV.
