Many of you shared your feedback, saying that any avid reader is probably dateable. And we agree! A love of reading is an attractive quality, and literary tastes are entirely subjective! (Unless you are Ayn Rand, who believes everything is objective.)
Still, we have to admit that if we were to make lingering eye contact with a fellow commuter or coffee shop-goer, we'd be more likely to strike up a conversation if they were thumbing through a smart, edgy or funny novel than if they were SO enveloped in E.L. James' erotic "Fifty Shades of Grey" that they weren't even hiding the cover discreetly on their lap.
So we present to you our very biased list of books that will make you look hot if you read them in public.
