NPR has posted an audience-amassed list of the Top 100 Best Beach Books. I'd say the seriousness and lightness of them varies widely (I mean, how many lists share Anna Karenina and One for the Money?).
I've read about 30 of these, or read enough of the book to know I won't read further. I've seen 28 of them in movie form (sometimes in several versions). Hmm, what does that say about my preference -- reading or viewing?
The list is here.

I have read or decided not to read probably 90% of the books on the list. But there's another 10% that I've heard of and thought about, but not read.
Thank you. When I am back to reading English, I'm going to consult the list again and read some of that 10%.
