Playboy (only for the articles/books...)

I understand the procrastination thing. I am just working on a Masters and I often wonder why. Should be done at Christmas. Good luck. Interesting list, by the way.
JUST for the books? How many of those have you actually read and not just skipped to the saucy parts?
