Sinds een week verkeert Elsje ook op Facebook. Dat had ze lang verre van zich gehouden: genoeg te beleven met alle blogs en twitter. Maar ja, in een zwak moment toch maar even een profiel aangemaakt. En het blijkt hartstikke leuk; er gaat een wereld voor haar open. Van Yvonne kreeg Elsje een aardige stokje toegespeeld (getagged, heet dat in Facebooktermen):

Welke boeken van de leeslijst van een student Engelse literatuur las jij?

Have you read more than 6 of these books? The BBC believes most people will have read only 6 of the 100 books listed here.
Instructions: Copy this into your NOTES. Bold those books you've read in their entirety, italicize the ones you started but didn't finish or read an excerpt and underline the ones you’ve seen the movies of. Tag other book nerds. Tag me as well so I can see your responses!

Wie van de blogosfeer neemt dit stokje van Elsje over? Elke, jij?

Naschrift: Gnoe had het idee om aan die werken die je gezien hebt een sterretje toe te voegen. Dus dat heeft Elsje nog even gedaan. Dat zijn er 9, waarvan ze er 15 ook las.
