How Well Do You Read?

The BBC believes most people will have only read 6 of the 100 books here. How do your reading habits stack up?

Note: This is going to be interesting, since I have at least a dozen books that I'm about halfway through--I have a bad habit of doing that. I'll think I'll but a slash for those...
