In high school and college English literature classes, we always hear about the classics. But how many have we really read?

Level 1: Just a few - 1-5
Level 2: Whew!! - 6-10
Level 3: These are great! - 11-15
Level 4: How did I Miss these? - 16-20
Level 5: Classic Master - 21+

Who's signing up for reading classics?
