Top 100 Books of All Time | Reading Bucket List.

Reading all the books from the Enno Vatti top 100 books scratch off poster.




I stumbled across this Scratch off poster when searching for the perfect gift to give a fellow book worm and I could not resist buying one for myself. I decided to challenge myself and read all of the books on the list. The majority of these books you will find are always on a "Top Books to Read Before You Die" kind of list so it is exciting to undergo this challenge. The idea is once you've read a book, you scratch off the gold foiling to reveal its picture, thus indicating that you've read it.


I will be highlighting in green the books I've read, and I'll link the books that I've reviewed.


So, according to this scratch off poster, here are the
