The Big Read

ok i had absolutely no idea where to put this at all so i appologise if it's in the wrong forum.

The Big Read is basically the top 100 books in Britain, and it has been narrowed down to 21 and on TV there is a programme, each week in which they go into detail about 3 of the books. You also vote for which is your favourite and sometime in December they announce which book is Britains favourite.

Books which have made it into the final 21 are; Birdsong, Captain Corelli's Mandolin, Catch-22, The Catcher in the Rye, Great Expectations, Gone with the Wind, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, His Dark Materials, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Jane Eyre, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Little Women, The Lord of the Rings, Nineteen Eighty-Four, To Kill a Mockingbird, Pride and Prejudice, Rebecca, War and Peace, The Wind in the Willows, Winnie the Pooh, Wuthering Heights.

I was just wondering which book do like best out of them all? which would be your number 1?
