No it doesnt fren! It just means you have not read them yet! Having not readed a book isn't something to be ashamed of; however, not reading is.

No biggie. I have read only 6 and I've been reading for 6 years, also studying lit. A lot of this stuff is obscure or difficult (at least regarding the investment of time). You definitely could read some stuff soon, though, such as the books listed from Divine Comedy to Lolita, they're really important and useful for further reading and learning (and, most importantly, great reads by themselves).
