Tag: 100 Books the BBC think most people haven't read more than 6 of

So I was tagged by Olivia of Meanwhile in Rivendell (in which I say thank you again!!) and I thought I'd do it!

The original tag here

The Rules:
1. Be honest.
2. Put an asterisk next to the ones you have read all the way through. Put an addition sign next to the ones you have started.
3. Tag as many people as these books that you have read.
