Books You Would Have Already Read If You Weren't Such a Disappointing Failure

Whether because they're established classics, volumes that have been collecting dust on my shelves for years, or books I'm sure I'd love if I simply got around to reading them... these are the most prominent skeletons (or spines, at least) in my literary closet.
Nothing like a good ol' public shaming to get you to finally put down that paranormal romance and pick up Infinite Jest.
