Choice of literature as a barometer for love?

Um, ka-YES.

It’s not the only factor; it’s not like “YOU LIKE DAN BROWN OBVIOUSLY WE CAN’T DATE,” but matching taste in literature is wonderful.

I would completely shriek to my friends if someone I liked didn’t know Pushkin.  Eugene Onegin, anyone?

Although I take offense at the “Virginia Woolf (too Virginia Woolf)” comment.  I like Virginia Woolf, though she may overuse semicolons at times.  Mrs Dalloway said she would buy the flowers herself, and well she should.  Everyone has a suicidal lady author phase (some people love Woolf, some Plath, some Sexton, etc.).

Thoughts?  Books you like?

I may be forced to put up a book list eventually.  Jesus.

If you like trashy chicklit, now is your chance to confess.

Man, I’m an English dork.  Books and grammar all the way….
