@1:42 yes i am out harpooning whales as we speak!!!!

I love how Brian has a video about treating your books right and then always tosses them into a pile when he does a list video

There's no one that would put out a list with the diversity of genre like Brian can. Great stuff.

I’m surprised it wasn’t actually top 117 or something 😂 we all love and support you Brian. Thank you for the list 🙏🏻

Another excellent list Brian! You keep wrecking havoc on my TBR… and I’m loving it!

Just when i got my TBR list manageable, you drop the banger off an episode. Congrats Brian. Great job as always

Great list - I enjoyed watching this. Thanks for the video!

Excellent. Thanks for putting this together.

What a great idea and list. Taking notes. I don't think I can do a top 100 but maybe top 50. Inspiring. Thank you Sir! 🙏🏽

Nice list! I think I’d drive myself crazy trying to put a top 10 together let alone 100!

Nice video, thanks for the recommendations!!!

Great list ! Really enjoyed hearing your thoughts on these favorites, our taste is very similar but I have only dipped a toe into the waters of my reading journey compared to you. Many added to my Want to Read list! The Book Thief made me cry as well, a rare feat. Loved A Gentleman in Moscow, All the Light, The Road, so many more on here, and am currently reading Lonesome Dove and blown away by McMurtry's epic. Cheers

Really enjoyed your list. I've read many of these choices and enjoyed them. TY for the post.

Love the list! Many thanks

Wow! Thanks for a fabulous new TBR list! Love this!

Thank you for making this list. Must have been very difficult to rank them, but we're glad you did.

What an amazing video this was. Thank you Sir!

I'm surprised I've read a lot of those. You're awesome, Mr. Durfee. Thank you.

This was such a good list. I added so many books on my tbr. Thanks Brian :)

What an incredible list of books! Thank you for another awesome video! Happy to say that Memory Sorrow and Thorn is on my tbr for 2024 along with Lonesome Dove. I watched Winds of War mini series many years ago so can only imagine how much better the book will be.

Thanks! I am excited to try your recommendations. The breadth is somewhat surprising, and you have provided a spark to try more mysteries and westerns - maybe a ww2 historic too. Sword of Shannara was my first book purchase too, and also holds a place in my heart. Pillars of the Earth...wow that was amazing. George R.R. schools Sanderson for me so far.

what a video man, I love it. Watching your video from Vietnam, I hope more and more books from your list can be translated into our language.

Excited to watch this!!!

Great Video Mr. Durfee. I loved it. I have probably read only 30 percent of those books but looking forward to reading some of the ones you have on this list now. I do have a suggestion if you don't mind. For your next top 100 if you could not add any Stephen King Books. NOT because I dislike him. The opposite. My favorite author of all time. I also belive he is yours as I have seen in the past you post all your Stephen King books ranked. I also just watched your top 100 sci-fi which I also loved. Keep up the great work. I just ordered your trilogy will hopefully read it before this summer comes.

This is a first video of yours i watched and I love it. Very specific. Few titles sounds very interesting and I’ve never heard of them. Time to read some books. Have a nice day.

Thank you for all the suggestions

Great list. I like your taste in books. I've read 64 of them, including nine of your top 10. Also got some ideas for my TBR.

This is the definitive top 100 list. All other top 100 lists should go ahead and delete their accounts.

Thank you for making this video. Cheers.

Cool list!!!! There are some WINNERS in that group for sure!!!

These are the videos I live for

I just found your channel via my revived love for King. The Stand has been my favorite since I read it. I am looking for others to read both King and not. There are several here that sound interesting. Thanks for this.

You could release a new top list every day and I'd watch every one of them.

thanks, love your energy :)

Had to pause and start over. Needed to make my own TBR from your cool choices! Rock n roll BLD!🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Bro, Thank you. Because of you, I read more! And more good stuff since I pick titles right from your shelves. Including Donaldson's Gap Series. A great author at his peak, and some of the best reading I've enjoyed.

Great List! You have so many books i need to check out. Now i am extremely curious about Lonesome Dove & anything by John Irving.

My reading list in the past year has been almost exclusively your recommendations and there hasn't been a single miss.

Amazing library, would love to see the shelf tour 😊

It's because of you that I found lonesome dove. You're the man and I'm starting your trilogy this year. Can't wait

I am in awe that u were able to both pick and order these, it would take me a year😇🤗😎

Had to comment again once I made it to the end after seeing the large pile on the floor! 😂 I've been watching your videos for a long time, and I'm surprised to see you just chuck them around!

Excellent list!

Amazing library collection! I like your choice of Anna Karenina!

This was truly an epically amazing list.

A truly wonderful top 100 list!

Durfee delivers again!

What a great list of pop fiction-- informative and I found myself nodding in agreement on so many titles. Especially I'm a huge fan of McMurtry, James Michner, Frank Herbert, Ken Follet, Tolkien, Stephen King, Asimov and so many of your choices. If I were to make a list, I'd put them in alphabetical order by genre. It's too difficult to choose the best except Dune is my personal favorite of all time. Found at least 20 authors of interest from your list. Your rapid fire, to the point descriptions are truly appreciated.!

It's probably just me, but I wonder if anyone else feels a little twinge of pain each time you hear one of the books hit the floor.

IM just here going in back in time for respect for you brother, hope you get well soon, all this time off you've had im catching to up you in reading!

I just found your channel and this video was awesome! I loved your choice of books and authors, namely, Moby Dick, Rendezvous with Rama, Foundation, Anna Karenina, The Name of the Rose, Lord of the Flies, To Kill a Mockingbird, Stephen King's novels...The writers you mentioned that I have not read yet I added to my '"To read next" list. The only great, if not the greatest writer of all time missing here is Feodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky!

I really like you sir. I'm trying to start reading as an adult more regularly. Particularly books I should've read earlier lol. I love your enthusiasm and humour. It's inspiring and relaxes me when I'm stressed. I have a few of the books you mentioned on my list such as Moby Dick, Lord of the Flies, The Dark Tower, The Martian, Dune, The Da Vinci Code, A Game of Thrones, War and Peace, To Kill a Mockingbird, Pillars of the Earth and Lonesome Dove. I can't wait to read them all! I've also read a couple of the books you mentioned in Gone Girl and Lord of the Rings. It was a while ago but I remember being really engaged. Also loved The Hobbit :) I'm currently reading The New Kingdom by Wilbur Smith as I'm studying Ancient Egypt. So thought I'd read a novel set in this period :)

I added too much books to the 'to check list'. Your TOP movies are so diverse that's impossible not find something that appeals to someone. Thanks!

Love it!

I loved this! I fr took notes. Beautiful.

I'm blown away from all the different genres! No hate from me on The DaVinci Code! That book is dope! It's a funny story that when that came out, and I bought it for my friends mom as a gift, not knowing what it was about. She loved to read, and I'd heard all the buzz about it, and she was legit mad. I read just fantasy books at the time, but she refused to take it so I read it and fell in love with it!

Wow, Dan Simmons didn’t get left out for once.

sweet list and sweet shirt!

You always have cool shirts on Brian. I actually have the H.E.R signature Stratocaster, which has a beautiful pearlescent finish with matching headstock. It's got a great '60s neck profile if you're into guitars. Anyway, I might be wrong, but don't think I've ever seen you don a KISS shirt! We both come from that era when it was an amazing experience to be a KISS fan!!

great list! and omg i need that h.e.r. shirt in my life

Once I finish IT I will have read 20 of your picks. Question !!!!! I loved Memory, Sorrow and Thorn. Finally finished the mammoth "to green angel tower". Should I continue Tad's publication order and read and start the Otherland series OR should I keep going with the Osten Ard series??? Thanks for the video.

Cool top mr. Durfee ! It was just a shock to see Words of Radiance only at number 47 though :)

I agree with about 80% of your picks. I still need to read the other 20%.

Incredible list. Many of these would be on my top 100

Great list of books. You are a very diverse reader. Enjoyed your splash of humor thrown it. Those poor books all ending up on the floor.

Currently reading through Malazan for the first time myself and am at Bonehunters book 6. I also feel Deadhouse Gates is my favourite in the series thus far. Not many others seem to rate it so highly in the series. Blew me away!

Great review of the top 100! I do enjoy the view of the pile of books at the end. I know you protect your books with covers and such, but it still gives me a cringe with just the right tinge of humor.

11:10 love how you wrote 666 for Needful Things

Very interesting. Some of my all time Favorites (that you did not mention) : In Cold Blood-Truman Capote, The Lords of Discipline-Pat Conroy, The Night House-Jo Nesbo, Red Rabbit-Alex Grecian, Furness-Muriel Gray, The Tomorrow File-Lawrence Sanders, The Old Man’s War-John Scalzi, Primal Fear-William Diehl, On Writing-Stephen King, Nick Cutter-The Troop, No Exit-Taylor Adams, Silence of the Lambs-Thomas Harris, Deliverance-James Dickey, American Psycho-Bret Easton Ellis, Mighnight Cowboy-James Leo Herlihy, All Quiet on the Western Front-Erich Remarque, Flowers for Algernon-Daniel Keyes

Epic list!

I happen to be reading the stand for the first time right now! So I guess I now know what the next 99 books I’m reading will be!

lat's goooooooooooooooooooooooo Another one of these best 100 videos

Based on this list I think you might like “Blindness” by José Saramago if you don’t mind the writing style. I’d be curious to hear your thoughts on it.

I have never seen anyone else who loves reading more than you.. you are a true legend!

Would be super curious what you think about Shantaram. If you haven’t read it, strongly recommended. And it’s a pretty thick book.

Just saw this pop up at midnight. Can’t wait to watch tomorrow. Ok maybe I watched the first 100-90 😂 this is the best television show in the universe.

Nice list! 100 isn't long enough, so many banger books couldn't fit

Great list … reminds me of how much books I still have to read …

Excellent list! I am rather surprised Michael Crichton didn't make an appearance.

I read Carrion Comfort on your recommendation. I did like it, but I can’t say it’s a vampire novel. I just like the classic blood suckers.

Love The Caine Mutiny! Great list

Wow this is an incredible list 😮

thank you for getting right to the point..........actually to a 100 points!

What a wonderful variety. I wrote down several titles to read.

Great list. Any reason for 666 on Needful Things?

Wow, great mix of genres. I always found it hard to get into fantasy. Do you know of any humorous fantasy books?

Loved this list. Hate the da Vinci code but it's not for every one. Great video.

there is a clear film on your book covers. Is that something you did or you purchased like that ?

Amazing list, and a Raider fan?? LFG! 🔥

This is the one of the best book recommendation i ever got. Rest of KZfaq channel just reccomend me romantic and women centric novels. I don't know in my country if i really can find all of this books, but i am really interest to read all of book physically or online.

How about a list of your favorite short stories and plays?

When am I going to be able to purchase The Lonesome Crown on Kindle in the UK sir?? 🙃

Was expecting 567 honourable mentions 😂

Have you ever read Anne Rice or Michael Crichton? I never seen you mention either one of these great writers.

My favourite novel is 'Black Beauty' by Anna Sewell.

Thank you Durfee

“Alright everybody! Welcome back to the number one television program in the history of the entire universe!” Gets me every time.

Bro read 7,000 ?!?

Oh my, Donna Tartt does the Secret History audiobook too. Nice voice.

Moby Dick is an incredible read! Surprisingly funny in parts, but to me the prose is just incredible. An amazing work of American literature!
