The 10 Least Sexy Books That Everyone Thinks Are Really Sexy (But Everyone Is Really Wrong)
The Virgin Suicides Jeffrey Eugenides
What’s not sexy about five high school-aged sisters, one of whom enjoys late night, rooftop trysts? Oh, you know, everything. Especially when all five of the sisters die by their own hands before they hit the age of eighteen. Oh, so it’s the fact that these girls are the objects of the incredibly intense, from-a-distance affection of their neighbors? That kind of creepy, passive stalker vibe is what gets you going? Different strokes, we guess. Also, we just don’t number among those who find the word “virgin” all that sexy. Call us crazy, but this book doesn’t do it for us.
