Lists of Bests: Athena08's "List of books I own but haven't read yet" http://www.listsofbests.com/list/52074 These are the novels on my bookshelves. Most of them I bought, some were gifts and a few I've borrowed from friends. I decided I had to make the list to stop me from buying more books. This list does not include the books I have already started; there are at least 40 books on my shelves with bookmarks already in them. It also doesn't include non-fiction, poetry or plays. I definitely need to get cracking on this list before I buy another book!
