Added “100 Novels” page

With the intention of bettering one another literarily (which isn’t actually a word - not yet anyway), a long-running challenge has been mutually issued by the creators of Popular Blur. The challenge is simple: to read all of the top one hundred novels of all time.

A few issues have arisen from this vaguely issued challenge regarding some of the particulars. First of all, there is no actual time frame attached to this goal. To that, I can only say we were too chicken to do such a thing, and we had no idea we would take this thing that seriously anyway. Moving on. Secondly, there was no agreed upon list of novels (turns out, there are plenty of these lists). lizard.jpgThat’s right, we agreed to do something but did not agree on what that something was. [Insert comment here about hindsight being revelatory and all that.] And finally, there was never any mention of reward for achievement or punishment for utter failure (although, again, since there was no stated deadline . . .). Follow along at your own pace [if you dare] - updates of our own progress will be added to the blog.

You can find the rest of this page in the sidebar titled, “100 Novels
