NPR's Top 100 SFF Books list
Bold the ones you've read, italicize the ones you fully intend to read someday. :) If it's a series and you've read one or more, but not all of the books, underline it.
(I think there should also be ways to indicate "wish I'd never read" and "plan to never read" -- hmmmmm, I guess I should add those)
OK, strikethrough if you never plan to read. Wish you hadn't read can be bold strikethrough.
