<blockquote><p>“The BBC believes most people will have read only 6 of the 100 books here. How do your reading habits stack up?<br />

</p></blockquote>
<p><em>(Note that the <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/arts/bigread/top100.shtml">BBC’s own list of the top 100 books as voted for by the British public</a> are very different to what you see below)</em></p>
<p>Alas, it’s going to be a tough one for me to fill out, since the pleasure of books is something I seem to have lost as the years have gone by, thanks to my lack of an attention span. Time was, I could start a book at 9pm, and finish it only to realise it was dawn outside and it was 5am. Nowadays, I glance at my watch when watching a sitcom…</p>
