These are the top 106 [EDIT: I count 105 here] books most often marked as "unread" by LibraryThing’s users. As in, they sit on the shelf to make you look smart or well-rounded. Bold the ones you've read, italicize the ones you own but have not read.

I think you might like Oryx and Crake.

She's all like "I'm better than Sci Fi, I'm a literary 'n' shit", so I was all like "Whatever biotch! This player don't roll your way."

I'll keep an eye out for it though.

It includes my favourite book of all time: Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. Probably read that one about six times.

I also enjoyed two other books you have but haven't read - the The Odyssey and The Iliad.

I've read 15 of them in total and don't think I have any on there that are sitting unread.

I thought the Bible might make the list :-)

Can I borrow that from you some time? It's been on my "I ought to keep an eye out for this, but I'm not going out of my way to get it (notional) list" for years.

My unread pile is ridiculous. It consists of about 5 tall piles of books in various places around the flat. And an entire bookshelf.

Sure - remind me next time you're around our way. Although I better get it back - the last copy I lent to a Cerillion employee was never returned :-|
