Much more Mummy than D'Arcy

Julie at Bookworm has the 'books I have read' meme with a difference. You bold the books in the list that you have read, and add three more of your own at the end. The list is 430+ at the moment, and very broad ranging. I liked the look of it, so I'll have a go.... I reckon the clusters are interesting. And only adding three was a big challenge. It's true, I have read no Jane Austen, and as Catch 22 has been strangely impenetrable to me, I haven't read it either. Got half way through a number of times. I've also read some of this list to D'Arcy. His reading has improved a lot recently, which has got to be a good thing, and he's pretty pleased with himself.
