IMHO you're better off finding who your favorite writers read are. And equally beneficial, find out who they hated and give those authors an equal shot too. I don't know. Sometimes the friends you do crank with in your twenties are burnt out before thirty.

And seeing as people in their twenties are to labels what cats are to bathtubs, it's wasted air to say this genre or genre or that. Besides, how do you classify Let Us Now Praise Famous Men? Which I think is a pretty damn great book to read at any age, one which could be could called fiction, non-fiction, history, prose, hallucination, criticism.

WHERE THE HELL DO RELIGIOUS TEXTS BELONG? I wonder if the Buzzfeed would have lost readers if they listed the Bible, since we're on the topic of books you may have read in or before high school.

Speaking of, in case it's 2AM where you are too and you're kind of drunk and curious, this is what R.L. Stein looks like.

Bad internet hole. Might make a Twitter some I can retweet some of R.L. "Gertrude Ain't Got Shit On Me" Stein's tweets:

>I called my mom for Mother's Day this morning, but no answer. She was still dead.

TIL Goosebumps is still going strong as a series. Buzzfeed should cover that. It'd be about at edifying as this list. [WAIT NEVERMIND THEY ALREADY DID BECAUSE NO BRAIN BRAINER THE 90s DUH] (http://www.buzzfeed.com/louispeitzman/how-well-do-you-know-goosebumps-titles)
