1. Bible (extremely dangerous book)
2. Koran (extremely dangerous book)
3. Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury (full of dangerous ideas)
4. Complete Shakespeare (very heavy with pointy edges)
5. Any book by George Eliot (95% probability of death by boredom before reaching the end)
I grew up in Eliot country so we pretty much had to read them at school - everyone I have ever talked to about this all say they are the most boring books they have ever read.
