Oh, man. I was just over at Mental_Floss reading the comments for this post. Here is a quote from one commenter called "Jenni":

i only read books on par with anna karenina. i don’t think i’ve read a book published after 1920 or so in the last five years..but it isn’t to feel superior. i genuinely find these books to be far better written than books today. that’s what i dislike about the article and some of the comments. as long as you’re not alliterate, you’re fine in my book. i don’t see why people need to be labeled as pretentious, or conversely, simple-minded, just because they prefer the canon or because they like chick lit and john grisham.
