Because I can't resist these things
Gacked from quite a few people: Frequently Unread Books meme
These are the top 106 books most often marked as "unread" by LibraryThing's users (as of today). Bold what you've read, italicize what you started, strike through what you couldn't stand. As ever, I think I'd rather annotate, but visually it's a clue.
Ahh, LT users, you reveal yourselves to be a sad bunch of trendoids. Bought the best-seller and couldn't get through it, saw the movie and found the book too dry. How else explain all the Jane Austen here? And I'll admit it helps to have done one's bread-and-butter reading before the net existed, when television wasn't especially attractive either.
