Another Book Meme

Posted on August 25th, 2008 in Editorial, Reading, meme by Robb

Here’s one that I got a while back and don’t think I ever posted. I’ll take the directions one step further, though, and boldly italicize those books that I intend to re-read (for whatever reason).

Instructions:

  • Bold the books on the list you have read
  • Italicize the books you intend to read
  • Underline the books you loved
  • Reprint the list on your own so we can try and track down the people who have read under ten and force books upon them!
