Kat's 100 Must Read Novels

My completely subjective list of 100 'Must Read' novels from my own personal reading history.
I've tried to include as wide a variety of authors and genres as possible.
Edit: I've just realised that Hound of the Baskervilles is here twice. D'oh! Well, consider it a twofer for Sherlock Holmes fans!
While some of these books are considered "classics", I would say this is a fairly accessible list as it's based on books I enjoyed and found engaging, not what I think are more "highbrow".
