/lit/ - Literature

Last year I got approached by a woman in a bookshop. I had a massive precarious stack of around 10 books, and she just said some shit like, "got a few books there, you doing alright there?" Then we had a chat for a while about books and shared our tastes in books. In my pile I had a leni riefenstahl biography and i think some other based shit like spengler and whatnot, which I tried to keep hidden throughout our conversation. She was buying a book about Tantra and something by Osho, so we chatted for a bit about Tantra, and I mentioned that I know this cool book about it called The Yoga of Power by Evola. We added each other on Facebook and went our separate ways after that.

A few days later I swapped 1 or 2 messages with her. She seemed receptive and friendly so I asked her on a date. She didnt reply.

Where did I go wrong?
I'm thinking maybe I should have chatted about bullshit with her a little more on messenger, instead of just asking for a date straight away. Or was it that I mentioned Evola in the bookstore?

Next time I see a woman reading something good, maybe I'll say hello... The outcome could only possibly be positive or neutral.
