These are the top 106 books most often marked as "unread" by LibraryThing's users. As usual, bold what you have read, italicize what you started but couldn't finish, and strike through what you couldn't stand. The numbers after each one are the number of LT users who used the tag of that book.]

Bah! Foucaults Pendulum! BAH! FIE!

I KNOW! God, that book and one by Danielle Steele are the only two books that I've ever actually thrown across the room and into a wall.

How far through Foucault's Pendulum did you get before you threw it into a wall?

Oh, hell, about 200 pages or so. The fucker was STILL hiding in some closet or something. He NEVER moved and the flashbacks were so fucking boring and nothing made sense and, oh my god I'm starting to want to throw something against the wall right now. ;)

200 pages of NOTHING. I felt so cheated.

Oh, and Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrel is a fun read, IMO.

I've never even heard of it. I will have to check it out.

What if you've seen the movies? Does that count, dude? *LOL*

CHEATER! CHEATER! No, that does not count.

Nor do Broadway musicals incidentally.

I have spoken, all tremble in fear!

You're losing all respect for me, aren't you? ;)

I tried with that one, I really did. It was better than Foucault's Pendulum if that helps.

Although the ingredients label on a soup can has more appeal than FP so I don't know if that means much.
