Top 100 Lists: 100 Best Novels

Random House's The Modern Library has two lists of best novels since 1900--one that's the board's list and one that's the reader's pick.

The lists are quite different. The reader's choice list seems to have way too many books by L. Ron Hubbard and Ayn Rand for me to take it very seriously. And they are also both quite different from the BBC's list of favorite novels.

Like top 100 lists? Then stick around for the rest of the month of June because I'll be posting several more of them.
