英語の本 meme!

Bold it if you've read it. Italicize it if you didn't finish it. Underline it if you couldn't stand it.  In addition to that, books I've only heard of are in blue.

Now this meme will make me appear stupid, or at least lazy. I'm not much of a bookworm. I have low attention span. ^__^ But since I think humility is good, I might just do this meme and reveal to the world how lazy I am. :D

What do the numbers inside the brackets denote? Why don't you read Dan Brown? It's not that I like him -- the only thing I envy about him is that he makes a lot of money.

I will look for the books you've bolded after my exams. XD

oh naww. This reading list is actually books people DON'T read often. Most people who tried it bold about the same number as I do. (Notice they're all classics lol)

The numbers in the brackets would be the number of people who read it-- I'm too lazy to update it though.

XD also, I wouldn't read most of these again. I do reccomend Anansi Boys and The Curious Incident of The Dog In the Night Time!

(And while you're at it... maybe... *_* Stardust. I know it's not on the list but .... *_*)

I've read the Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time! :D I'll look for Anansi Boys.

Stardust by whom? I recommend The Eight by Katherine Neville (even though I never finished it myself) :P My sister says it's very good. I only read halfway. ^^

Okay, if you say so, I'll do this meme! ^^ Yes, I do notice most of them are classics. And since the abridged kiddie versions do not count, you won't see many bolded titles! :D

Hmm I'll go look out for it :DDD Very probably being sold in Kinokuniya.

Stardust is by Neil Gaiman (So is Anansi Boys and American Gods) but I have the audio book (narrated by him!!! *_*) if you don't have the time to read. Exams. D:

Yeah-- classics. Children's classics no less. Means I stopped reading. T_T!!! And I liked the abridged kiddie versions! Short, sweet and to the point >:O
