List Fun! Book Riot Readers' Top 50

Happy Thursday! 

Over at Book Riot, they've posted their readers top 50 reads, and I thought I'd take a que from What Red Read and see how many I've read! 26 fully (okay, only half the Harry Potter series, but still counting it), with 3 half-completes (only one will I probably not finish - the others I put down because of life stuff getting in the way). And half the rest are somewhere on my TBR list.  Some of the choices were surprising. (The Night Circus? I really enjoyed it, but I wouldn't put it in my top reads.)
