These are the works I scored with the The Universal Mary-Sue Litmus Test to write the post “A Mary Sue Test and Statistics”. If you’re looking for the actual scores, see Data Files.
The dates after the names are when the books were first published, not necessarily for the editions I read. Where it matters, I’ve listed the particular edition I read/watched/whatever as well.
