Okay, now to make myself feel better for having seen so few movies, I have to do the book meme. Everyone else did it weeks ago, but hey. ^_^
These are the 106 books most often marked as "unread" by LibraryThing's users.
Bold the ones you've read, underline the ones you read for school, italicize the ones you started but didn't finish. Add (*) beside the ones you liked and would (or did) read again or recommend. Even if you read them for school in the first place.
No way to mark the ones I want to read?

About eleven hours ago I put beatlejessie, sky_violette, akutenshi7, and xtp5 onto a plane back to Illinois. I miss them already! ;_; But we had a wonderful time at Anime Expo and I will at least see three of them next month. That's all I have to console me. *pathetic sniffle*
Seriously, we had a great time. Exhausting as usual, but great. ^^ First con with three sets of costumes and I think we can call it a success! I'll post some pictures when I have some good ones to post. ^^ Meanwhile, my apartment and my car are desperately, desperately messy. I know what I'll be doing tomorrow!
