BOOKS!

Heels called it "Book Game!" and I thought since I don't feel like being creative right now this would be fun.

There are always so many books to be read, aren't there?

Bold those you've read.
Italicize books you have started but couldn't finish.
Add an asterisk* to those you have read more than once.
Underline those on your To Be Read list.

You haven't read The Count of Monte Cristo? You HAVEN'T READ THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO?!? Dude go straight to the bookstore (or library) after work and pick it up. It's only the best book ever written in the history of the world. And it will be a fantastic way to spend the weekend. It's my very favorite book. And now I want to read it AGAIN. You will love it, you have my absolute guarantee.

No, I haven't read The Count of Monte Cristo. I have a problem with most pre-1900 novels: I don't get much past the halfway point before I get distracted by a newer novel.

I'll check it out at the library, for you, though.
