Let's face it, there are just too many good books and too little time to read it all. Those must read classics just sometimes don't make the cut.

My to be read pile is ever growing. It's quite daunting sometimes to look at actually. However then being a literature student there are so many books for you to read, that they assume you have read, and if you haven't people don't think you're legit. Being an english student isn't about turning your nose up at people who haven't read the complete works of Shakespeare or studied the in-depths of Catcher in the Rye in your spear time. So to prove my worth as a literary student, here are all the books I haven't read.
