Lol. I've read fewer books than you which is way I'm not going to do this meme. :p
lol Don't worry about it... I, like tiqa khairi, will not be playing this game as I've read very few of these :-p Congrats on reading as many as you did!
btw, I nominated your blog for the Sisterhood award. Check it out :-D
I don't usually like MEMEs, but this one is very cool. I think I need to steal it for my blog. :)
