Book Listers UNITE!

This group has become officially dormant. It happens. If you want to revive this group, or create a new group on the same topic, see this page.

How many book lists are there floating around out there? The "1001 list" tells us we're literary failures, the "banned book" list tells us we're rebels, and now there's the "EW 100 New Classics" list. Can we take more?
