My knitting stuff is progressing, but I don’t really have pictures to show you…hence this non-knitting post (course, I tend to have a lot of those).
This post is all about the books you’ve read — or haven’t read.
Bold the ones you’ve read, italicize the ones you’ve started but haven’t finished, cross out the ones you hated, and underline the ones on your book shelf! Combine indicators as appropriate.
