I have every book on your might consider reading if someone gave it to me list. I've accounted for all of them, and I will be checking your bag on the way out my door, later. Thank you for riding the MTA...

Ha. Actually, I've never even heard of most of those books. If someone gave them to me and they looked interesting, sure, I'd consider reading them. But my to-read stack is taking over my bedroom as is; I'm certainly not going to go out of my way to steal books I've never heard of. That sort of effort is reserved for books I consciously want to read. :P
