Unread book meme
Per Thursday Bram's blog:
These are the top 106 books most often marked as “unread” by LibraryThing’s users. As usual, bold what you have read, italicise what you started but couldn’t finish, and strike through what you couldn’t stand. Add an asterisk to those you’ve read more than once. Underline those on your to-read list.
