Books I can remember I've read

Books I Can Remember that I’ve Read (In no particular order)
I'm only counting text books if I read the entire thing.
I'm counting books that I read more than half of but stopped because I couldn't stomach it (Lolita) or hated (Moby Dick). I'm not counting books that are mostly pictures (The Cat in the Hat) although they are still some of my favorite books.

**** - I liked
*** - OK
** - I didn’t like
* - It sucked.

Wow- I've never even thought of making a list like this- have no idea how you remembered all these! Great job starting the blog, mine doesn't have any exciting lists like this, but it's better than writing in my journal, which never happened!
