I found this little meme at Diane's site and thought I'd give it a try. It's a list of books; you get to see what you've read, what you haven't, what you hated and so on. After doing it, I am left wondering who came up with this list. Is it best-sellers, quote-important-unquote books, what? There's a whole lotta Harry Potter on that list, and a shocking lack of Chuck Palahniuk. I also noticed that I have a disgraceful amount of books to finish. Here goes.....
Directions:

Damn, I should have thought of using less font on the titles. Yours is so much easier to read.
Interesting finding out what everyone has read.
