*** but now I've decided to change the new instructions too! ***
bold those you've read --- I'm also using this for authors I've read
italicise started-but-never-finished
Monospace those you own but haven't gotten to yet (was underline) --- No books in this category for me
underline everything you want to read! (was Make red)
Strike through the ones you have no desire to read whatsoever!
* add three of your own
