#11 probably makes me the saddest. I'm not sure I want to raise a daughter in a world where that is a fact.
Yes... this is from Buzzfeed again. So sue me (but really don't bother... you'll only get a 3rd generation Kindle and a Starbucks gift card with a whopping $6.80 left on it)

Books that hate me
