I will admit to having only read the first one so far, but I completely fail to see what is pretentious about it.

Anything by Tolstoy.
Anything else women consider "philosophy".

A Clockwork Orange. Nothing wrong with the book, matter of fact it's amazing, but it just has that effect so that when you read it, you grow a massive ego.
Anything by Franz Kafka. His work has the exact same effect.
Ah, so that would be a book that makes people pretentious.
I think this is trap some readers fall into; ethier because they haven't read many books, and feel like they've accomplished the impossible, or because they've read enough to have their own taste and think theirs is better than everyone elses.

A Clockwork Orange is so tiny. You'd have to be a total faggot to think it was an accomplishment to read. Come back when you're done with Gravity's Rainbow, amirite?
