And for the first time ever, Jersey Shore's Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi and William Faulkner have something in common. Well, besides their love of the Bump-It. This week, Snooki—fresh from being ball-dropped at the Jersey Shore on New Year's Eve—will release her first (and hopefully only) novel, A Shore Thing, which chronicles the summertime adventures of two cousins at the Jersey Shore. Of course it does. Strap on your sexiest leopard print and see if you can figure out which quotes come from A Shore Thing and which come from Faulkner's Southern Gothic classic Absalom, Absalom!
