Unread books

Dec 22, 2009 10:56

A bit old but still interesting exercise from starlin's blog. (These are the top 106 books most often marked as "unread" by LibraryThing's users (as of 30 September 2007). I bold'ed what I have read, italicized what I started but have not finished, striked through what I couldn't stand. Added a plus to those read more than once, an asterisk for those that I kept in my library after reading.
