My local bookstore doesn't have books lit recommendeds and I have no idea if the ones available are worth the read.
Even though ratings are inaccurate most of the times I see no other option.

1. Read a bit of the books online first, obviously.
2. Order books online, equally obviously.
3. Get an e-reader, also obviously.

Is this a ruse? Just in case it isn't, if a bookshop doesn't have any of the books /lit/ talks about, it's probably cometely worthless.

>painful admission of guilt

I still mostly go off of my AP Lit books and authors to read from Highschool.
If it's on the list I assume it is at least worthwhile even if I don't enjoy it.
