For books. Most everyone else has done this, including Dawn, Looney, Jen, Paula, Don and Mark, so I figured I would too because I'm a follower of coolness. The rules were: Take the list below, paste it into your own blog, put READ next to those you've read, WANT TO next to those you are interested in, AGAIN & AGAIN next to those you've read and can't stop, and leave blank those you don't care to read.
