Book-related memes

Real content. One day I'll have it.
First, the top 106 (why such a random number?) titles most often tagged "unread" on LibraryThing.
Bold what you have read, italicize books you’ve started but couldn’t finish, and strike through books you hated. Add an asterisk* to those you’ve read more than once. Underline those on your tbr list.
( title list ahoy! )
Via kottke.org, this is a list of the 1001 books you must read before you die, from the book of the same name. No, I have no idea why lots of these were chosen either.
( The ones I've read to date, not the complete list )
That doesn't include any of several titles on this list that are sitting around waiting for me to get around to ordering them (London Orbital) or reading them (The Robber Bride). Also, haven't indicated which ones I loved and which ones I'd rather have rusty nails driven into my eyeballs than read again (*cough*Ulysses*cough*).
