read.

just because book memes are fun (look for another one in a day or two). and because i don't really feel like grading at the moment.


to join in the fun, copy the list and then:

Bold the ones you’ve read,
italicize the ones you want to read,
cross out the ones you won’t touch with a 10 foot pole,
put a cross (+) in front of the ones on your book shelf,
and asterisk (*) the ones you’ve never heard of.
