But otherwise I'm having trouble thinking of other ways to look at this, since I don't feel much guilt associated with my reading ... except that I should often be working instead of reading. (One of the hazards of working for yourself is that the boss is generally sympathetic to your foibles.)
The problem as I see it is most books that fall into a guilty pleasure category are romance. I'm not embarrassed by anything I'm currently reading or have in my TBR pile. So how am I to pick something I'd find a guilty pleasure when anything that might fit into that category I probably won't enjoy reading and thus not a pleasure? Oh and the one book I did find that might have fit but too expensive (yes I have it, but others won't).

Since nobody has made any nominations, I'd like to suggest we scrap this topic and pick one where we can find books to nominate.
