Lists of Bests: Claire's "Books I Want to Read" http://www.listsofbests.com/list/48145 Made up of books I should have read and never got round to, books I own but haven't read yet, books I just fancy the sound of, books I want to read again, books I suspect I've read but can't remember for certain, and books I feel I ought to at least find out, even if I suspect I'm not going to like them. A list to look at before I go to the library (instead of trying to rack my brains to remember).
