Markd9528 Asks "Should Any of These Books Be Embraced or Avoided?"

These are books which aroused my interest while I was doing other people's challenges. Many are lesser known works of beloved authors; indeed, in dozens of cases, I didn't even know the author in question had written that particular book.
Since most of these works are seldom commented upon, I would appreciate if anyone could point out from their own reading any outstandingly good books or trash (even though the latter might have an intriguing title or cover).
NOTE: Many thanks to the people who have made Comments or Voted, either about books worth reading or ones to avoid. Of course, I hope some of you have found some suggestions for your own reading.
