Ive got 60 Unread books on my 700 currently... I cant remember what half of them are, blubs and Synopsis' isnt too bad of an idea, considering i jump between 5 novels ussually untill i can get past the first page and fall in when im in between books. a short summary isnt too bad of an idea and can get you reinterested in the book in the first place
