One of my favourite reads is
Three Men in a Boat which I blame Robert A. Heinlein for. I will blame H. Beam Piper for my collection of James Branch Cabell books. My collection of Thorne Smith books is, sadly, all my own fault. Looking back, the Pentiction Public Library and several used book stores for allowing an impressionable teen to read anything he choose should carry part of the blame for my addiction.
