I have read 21 of these books. I'm smarter then the average bear. However books #33 and #36 are technically the same thing, unless one was refering to the rest of the series and not just the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, there for it would count as 6 individual books bringing my total up to 26. . . but it's just a silly list anyway.

How many of these books have you read?
