No, you're too far gone. You're forever a pleb.
Check the sticky holy shit fuck
Read the sticky before you post.
Here's what you do, OP:
You avoid this board. It is so full of elitists. You read some pretty common to read books, you read some poetry, some video game stuff and some other random interest books on atheism and such.
This is a board that will just mock you for being above the usual "Hunger games is the best book series ever" trash but below "I only read books about thousands of years ago".

Like this guy here. The images are snobby and elitist, the books listed on the "books named by try-hards" are also on /lit/, reddit and goodread's top lists of books in general.
In short, read what you want. If you want recommendations, create a profile on goodreads, add the books you've read there and rate them, it should recommend you more books like them.
If you recommendations on good fiction in general, https://www.reddit.com/r/books/wiki/fiction . /lit/ will groan and whine because it has reddit on the title, however you'll find every book (Lolita, Crime and Punishment and even Infinite Jest) commonly discussed here is present on this list, so it's a good resource.

It's better to ask for recommendations on Reddit since they are more helpful and less pretentious.
