"What we have here is 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, italicize the ones you started but didn't finish. Here's the twist: add (*) beside the ones you liked and would (or did) read again or recommend. Even if you read 'em for school in the first place."
Interestingly, I was never set ENOUGH books at school - I'm actually a voracious reader and the thing that killed English Literature for me was studying the same books for over a month each, bleah. But I'm also not a fan of the overly long flowery style so beloved of the 18th/19th century writers hence not reading much Dickens or Brontes.
