There's been a meme going around in which people take the list of most widely unread books on LibraryThing, and mark which ones they've read.

I'm not going to do that. I'm going to go through and explain why I haven't read the ones I haven't, and I think we will all find that a great deal more entertaining. I of course have no problem with people telling me I really should read any of these, although I do not promise to do it any time soon.
