How to pull books read using Facebook API to website?

I'm trying to use Facebook's Graph API but the books section is returning nothing.

This is what it returns on Facebook's Graph Explorer.

{
"data": [
]
}

Anyways all I want to do is have the books I've read and want to read to display the name and image (book cover) on my site. What kind of script do I need for this?

You need the /me/book.reads call and user_actions.books permission. Also you need books in your book section.

{
  "data": [
    {
      "id": "10101176585859437", 
      "from": {
        "name": "Philippe Harewood", 
        "id": "13608786"
      }, 
      "start_time": "2013-05-26T20:06:43+0000", 
      "publish_time": "2013-05-26T20:06:43+0000", 
      "application": {
        "name": "Books", 
        "id": "174275722710475"
      }, 
      "data": {
        "book": {
          "id": "109248589093974", 
          "url": "https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Bourne-Ultimatum/109248589093974", 
          "type": "books.book", 
          "title": "The Bourne Ultimatum"
        }
      }, 
      "type": "books.reads", 
      "no_feed_story": false, 
      "likes": {
        "count": 0, 
        "can_like": true, 
        "user_likes": false
      }, 
      "comments": {
        "count": 0, 
        "can_comment": true, 
        "comment_order": "chronological"
      }
    },
