50 Most Obscure Novels You Wont Find in Public Libraries (Guardian and Boxall Inspired)

This is a list of books I have flagged over the last few years as potentially interesting, but for some reason I am having trouble procuring them with my public library print or electronic resources. Also, none of these seem to ever be on Kindle Deals either. Fair share of these have never even BEEN released on Kindle at all. Please feel free to rate as well - I haven't read any of them yet!
