MLA 30 Books Every Adult Should Read and Orange Prizes 50 Best Contemporary Reads

United Kingdom - "a World Book Day poll conducted by the Museum, Libraries and Archives Council (MLA), in which librarians around the country were asked the question, 'Which book should every adult read before they die?' "
I've completed 58% of these and I reckon that I could easily finish the rest of the list in the next couple of years, BUT I doubt I'll quite make 100% as I'm not sure about reading the Bible. I aim to complete the list by 2010.
The Orange Prize have also list 50 Contemporary Great Reads of which I have read 40%, many of these books fit into the MLA or the 1001 list so I'm also tackling this!

Update June 5th, 60% complete (MLA)
