How often do you read?
Woo! I got it.
Also, the key for Dark Shadows has been taken, but not by me.

Portuguese. The title is just a literal translation. Some translations change almost everything like, Animal Farm is called the Revolution of the animals/The triumph of the pigs, in portuguese. But the worst I can remember was a book called the Physician, which in my country is titled, in a word-by-word translation, the physicist.

Can't believe I didn't notice this until now...Here I am a day behind and the easy ones are done.
Anyway, the second part of that is a quote from Harry Truman.

I can recall, there is a fair bit of killing in this book

So, I thought "The Merchant of Venice", but that was wrong. Gondola driver (uses a stick) trades with a merchant? Bah.

Had another (wrong) idea. Moneyball. Handy with a stick is a baseball batter. Trading, well, because that's the whole point of the story, isn't it?

I think I should know this, It's on the tip of my tongue...
Is it a walking stick? Or that hint was just a bait?

Here is a new idea.
Let's talk about this everyone.

Let's think about your train of thought... I am sure the list is biblical at the moment, but it might narrow it down.

Hmm guessed Breakfast of Champions, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland...grasping at straws at this point.

Awww, I thought I might have been on to something with this one, given the authors... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KRQ0XZY/

So... not the The First Deadly Sin... the seven in total might be a biblical list? Gluttony being a sin that is hard to swallow, and deadly sins are grim and bleak?
Also tried A Morbid Taste for Bones, but no dice.

Let's just say the biblical comment belongs with 13.
As for 16, it was a book that came out in the 70's.

Tried The Naked Lunch, Restaurant at the End of the Universe and other books with food-related titles.
Bump for stuck and hungry.

Let's just say the word bleak refers to has been used already, and it's not desert.

Ok, ok, how is this not Atticus Finch (To Kill a Mockingbird)??
Lofty (attic) bird (finch) plus the "fun tactic" seems to be a play on the name Atticus like I've seen in other solutions...

Nice, I thought that would have been long gone by now!
I am bad at guessing which will be easy or hard.

Oh they aren't actually quotes. They are word riddles.

Got one of them... are they all classics, or contemporary works as well?

Dang, I'm a big reader, and I'm finding this extremely challenging. Bump! Maybe this'll attract some helpers. ;)
ETA: Answered Question 1! And now Questions 12, 5 and 6.

You can and should discuss. I may or may not drop hints if I see struggling.
I would like to see some discussion before dropping hints
GAs end 8/23 at 8:00 PM EST (Except one which apparently ends at 7:24, ugh.)
Group Quiz
GA's attached! There will be several GA's at the end, and two/three will be unbundled. Not triple A or anything though.
GAs -- Plantera, Scribblenauts Unmasked, Nuclear Throne, and several bundled games in a train including a NSFW VN, puzzle game, simulation, and more! The named games will be level 2+ with basic sgtools (unactivated will be forgiven if older then one year!) Unnamed will be level 1, same sgtools.
You should look at first quiz for formatting help if you are confused.
Random key drops too;
