Listing the Lists of the Lists

I recently read a Sunday Salon blog that was about (yes, another book list!) The EW 100 New Classics book list. My first instict was to scream! Yet another standard to which I’ll never match up! We book listers must be masochistic, that’s all I can say.

My second thought, however, was how could we have a one-stop shopping list of The Lists? and A-ha! this group was born.

So if you find a book list on your reading journey, post a new thread with it and share it with the world!

Enjoy!
