Stolen from Sihui.
1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.
2) Italicise those you intend to read.
3) Change the colour of the books you LOVE.
4) Reprint this list in your own blog so we can try and track down these people who've read 6 and force books upon them.
*5) Underlined means read it a little but dropped it later. (Xero added this rule herself and I kept it just since it might come in handy 8D)
