Reading 1001 discussion

When you find any of these books referenced in other works -- Just hit reply and state where it was mentioned and if you want any detail about how it comes up in that other book. It can include non-list books but be clear if it's not a 1001 book where the reference appears.

A tally of all mentions will be kept in the master list page (that I will create when I have finished entering all the books -likely will take me a while).

This list is in alphabetical by author Last name according to 1001 app which means there are some errors.
