29, but I found this list seems kind of flawed in how it's presented. Why list all of the Harry Potter books as one entry? Or the His Dark Materials trilogy? Or all of the Narnia books? (But then have The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe as a separate title).

Yikes. I've read 23, and started but not finished about seven others. Not so good, considering how many were classics I've not so much as touched.
And none of those have I read in the last year.
And none of those have I read in the last year.
I've read 20 and started but not finished a few others. That said, I've read some multiple times; <I>To Kill a Mockingbird</i> and <I>The Grapes of Wratgh</i> are two of my favourite novels. There are quite a few books there on my want to read list.

Meh, not so many, though there's a couple I started and didn't finish, and some I; can;t quite remember whether I've read or not.
I saw a thingummy a while ago by, blimey, I forget which bookshop, comparing the list of 'Books people say they read' and 'Books people actually buy'
Only one book was on both (it's also in the list here). Anyone care to guess?

My guess was also going to be To Kill a Mockingbird. Hmm... Well, people buy Harry Potter, but they won't admit to reading it. And people always say that they read the bible, but I doubt anyone actually buys it. So, my guess is The Hobbit.
I've read/started 66!

I didn't realize all those movies were based on books... Or did the novelizations come later? And I've read the entire Harry Potter series more than once, does that count?

17. Most from school.
Without going into detail, 26. But this list is somewhat bogus, listing as it does the complete works of Shakespeare as a single thing (which I didn't count, because I've read some, but not all), and both the Chronicles of Narnia (which I've read all eight volumes of) and The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe as a separate thing. And the entire Harry Potter Series (which I've read two of, and didn't count), but three separate Jane Austen novels.
I could make an equally long list of equally important books, completely separate from this one. Important authors I didn't see on this list include Franz Kafka, William Faulkner, Willa Cather, Edith Wharton, Robert Louis Stevenson, Kurt Vonnegut, Ernest Hemingway. Sinclair Lewis, Jack London and (God forgive them) Mark Twain. But we got John Kennedy Toole on there.

37 for me (plus six I've only read part of - the Bible and Shakespeare being two of the latter).
