OK - I got this from Julie. It's a good reminder of the books I've been meaning to read. Um - yeah, with all my time.......
Edit - Mike suggested we add a book - so mine is at the end....
If you play - please leave me a comment so I can read your list!
Here's how you play. Take a look and see which ones you’ve read. Then, if you’re a blogger, post it on your blog. If you play, leave me a comment so that I can come visit!
Here’s what you do:
* Bold the ones you’ve read.
* Italicize the ones you want to read.
* Leave in normal text the ones that don’t interest you.
* Put in ALL CAPS those you haven’t heard of.
* Put a couple of asterisks by the ones you recommend.
EDIT - Erik at Julie's site suggested putting a + by those you have seen the movie of. So I am adding that too.

You're not interested in The Lord of the Rings!!! I can't be your friend anymore. ;)
Oooh. I love these kinds of games! I did mine on Word, and if you want to see it, I'll email it to you if you send me your email address. (I lost all the formatting when I tried to copy it into my own blog - don't have the energy to redo.)
Linda, I'd love to see it. And I know what you mean about losing formatting....
Anyway, my contact information is on my profile page. :)
