The Little Tortoise

Found this on a friend’s blog.

These are the top 106 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,
underline the ones you read for school [I wasn't able to figure out how to underline, so I put a couple of lines before the book name]
italicize the ones you started but didn’t finish.
add (*) beside the ones you liked and would (or did) read again or recommend. Even if you read them for school in the first place. [I added more * based on how much I liked the book!]
