The Most Addictive Book

How this was counted. Counted by distinct redditor: naming a book counts, and so does endorsing it in a reply. Quoting a favourite line, arguing about the adaptation, or saying you bounced off it doesn't. Answers naming only an author were dropped, because there's no row to put them in. Unlike every other tally here, this thread was still live when it was counted — captured about eleven hours after it was posted, so the numbers are a snapshot of an argument in progress rather than a finished one. “Addictive” also isn't “best”, and the thread knows it: several of the most-named books arrive with an apology attached.
