Via tijnat, a literary show of erudition.  A little heavy on modern bestsellers I thought, but then I don't generally read modern bestsellers so I would think that, wouldn't I?

* Look at the list of books below.
* Type "READ" beside the ones you've read.
* Type "WANT TO" beside the ones you'd like to read.
* Type "AGAIN AND AGAIN" beside the ones you could read again and again.
* Type "TRIED" beside the ones you gave the ol' college try and then gave up on.
* Type "NEVER HEARD OF" beside the ones you never heard of.
* Leave blank the ones that you aren't really interested in.
