Can anyone name them ALL? I see sooooo many, but I know I haven't caught every one of them. I want a list! xP Since I'm too lazy to compile my own. I'd even have to google some.

Hello, I am Bre! :3 I absolutely love Hetalia, Doctor Who, and all sorts of other things~ <3 I don't mind getting friend requests, but I'd prefer it if we've talked first. Don't be shy; drop me a comment or sMail!

Collected from this thread.

Some of them have question marks next to them. If anyone can tell me what these reference, I'll edit my post.

Malice isn't included on the list because it very likely isn't a reference to anything in particular. Similarly, I think the Book Belts, Tattered Page, and Empty Scroll Rod are just general book themed items.

I decided to add to add Cuirass of the Literati and Poniard of the Literati. If you really don't think they're references, feel free to comment and make your case.

Well I heard that the Noctule might be A Wrinkle in Time. It's been ages since I read it though, so I really can't say. Also, someone in the thread I linked narrowed the Battered War Journal down to like... 5 books. The 'victories and defeats' in the summary makes me think of War and Peace, but seeing as I haven't actually read the book...

Yeah, I don't know. D: I just know that now that I've figured out all the references, I'll NEVER be able to get everything I need from that darn shop.

No kidding. The artists did an excellent job and it's going to be really tough picking prizes.

I know, Terra. ;~; I seriously love the artist who made that Artemis Fowl book which I recognized right away. I really do, it's perfect...and so many other of those items. I NEED more books. More, more, MOOOOOORE! whines

I'm fairly certain the Literati items aren't references to anything. The term literati refers to people who are interested/educated in literature, I think?

I thought that might be the case, but I wasn't sure. I'll go ahead and take them off.

Okay, so I just spent all my sP and bought 20 more books. I have 322 now. ;-; But I'll still never, ever, ever be able to get all this amazing stuff. I hate the subeta artists for doing this to me. xD I'm gonna have to SERIOUSLY set my priorities straight before I start buying.

I didn't miss it. I left it off because I think it's just a general book item, rather than a specific reference to anything. If it is a reference to something though, I'll add it back.

I had a GLEEE moment when I saw the prizes. I recognized The Tiger Who Came to Tea and The Little Prince instantly. <3 Also lol at Twilight, I'm guessing that's a new item?

I forgot one, Criminalsteaks is Macavity the Mystery Cat right? =D Nevermind. Just noticed it on the second post.

Fahrenheit is one of my favorite books of all time. I'm very happy with that reference.

I want to say the yellowed photograph is Planet of the Apes, but I'm not positive. It's just the only thing that pops out at me.

Distorted: I doubt it, since Literati is a real word, not just a word made up to sound like Illuminati?
