Book Memo

I grabbed this book list memo from Random Kath. I'll be honest, I am surprised that some of these books were marked as "unread," because some of these books have been on the NY Time's best seller list, so I am not sure the accuracy of this list. But it is fun to play...

MEMO
These are the top 100 or so books most often marked as "unread" by LibraryThing's users. Bold the books you have read, italicize the ones you started but didn't finish.
