Et meme om klassiske bøker. Har du lest mer enn seks av disse? Fra Facebook.
Her følger det et meme – om «klassikere» *(Da Vincikoden, er den en klassiker?). Poenget er å merke av bøker man har lest med en «X» – jeg har lagt til mine egne notater med «F» for å ha sett en film basert på boka, T for å ha sett boka dramatisert på teateret, og P for bøker jeg har planlagt å lese.
