You know you’re a lit nerd when, after “Perfume” by Patrick Suskind, smelling a particularly nice perfume always leaves you wondering exactly what it was made from…
"You can have absolutely nothing in common with someone, but if you have read the same books, you have something to talk about. Strangers strike up conversations on planes, in the crowded aisles of bookstores, and even online when they see someone reading a book they have read. They recognize a fellow traveler. They have a place to start. And that’s why I think we should have a universal required reading list, a Required Reading for Humanity project. We need a place to start. If we could construct for ourselves a list of books that are remarkable not for the statements they make but for the questions they ask and the modes of thought and inquiry they suggest, perhaps we could begin finding something like a common language. Perhaps we could begin answering the big questions together. Think of it as diplomacy by literature, global unity via the Socratic seminar."

I have an idea…
How about I run some literary confessions? Just message me your confessions, and I’ll put them up to see if we all feel the same?
- Literary crushes/ shipping,
- Things you liked/ disliked against popular opinion,
- How you would have preferred a novel to end,
- Pretty much anything else, I’m intrigued as to what could come up.
