here are the top 106 books most often marked as "unread" by LibraryThing's users (as of today). As usual, bold what you have read, italicise that you started but couldn't finish, and strike through what you couldn't stand. Add an *asterisk* to those you've read more than once. Underline those on your to-read list.

nah, i don't think you'd like it. i don't think you'd bel;ieve the book. one guy who sold it to me said he couldn't go through the first chapter cuz the characters aren't real. well i think they are.

nononoo, changed my mind. there are lots of things especiALLY for you with a psychologist's dedication, "Mrs. Taggard heard James say one evening, in the presence of guests, a peculiar tone of satisfaction in his voice, 'Dagny, even though you were named after her, you really look more like Nat Taggard than like that first Dagny Taggard, the famous beauty who was his wife.' Mrs. Taggard did not know which offended her most: that James said it or that Dagny accepted it happily as a compliment." i think you would like dagny, and her being complete and a square puzzle piece.
