The Schlocko Redemption

I'm not sure why "redemption" is the opposite of "humiliation," but it's the latest trend here on ListChallenges so I'll hop right on. Here is a list of the books that boost my scores, plus some postmodern tomes that allow me to feel like an intellectual snob, not to mention a handful of prizewinners that I've read before everyone else. And there's Nelson Algren, because you should read Nelson Algren.
