Via matociquala, and pnkrokhockeymom a book meme from nebula99[Unknown site tag]:

Apparently, these are the books most often listed as "unread" on librarything. The original instructions included recommendations to italicize books started but not finished, bold books read, and bold and underline books read for school.

Updated to add a twist via txanne[Unknown site tag] via  rivka[Unknown site tag]:  I'm adding an asterisk by books I liked, which will include (a) books I liked and would read again (or have read more than once because I enjoyed them; and (b) books I've not finished but didn't stop because I didn't like them, and I'd like to finish them.

I am adding bold and italicize books I only read because of my bookclub.
