In the literary world, there are some book titles that really make on wonder what was going on in the editor’s brain that day. I recently posted some of the worst. Well, I thought I had, until I noticed that I had some that didn’t make the first cut due to a lack of space. That they didn’t make the first cut may tell you how bad they were. But instead of just deleting them, I thought, what the heck, go for it! So here we go with part two of the very worst book titles.
Great! Get your gear off and let’s get … knitting?Practical advice for terrorists who ride horses?Now this will definitely stop the confusion.Plain old moo juice wouldn’t sound near as sexy!Can’t wait for Killer Kangaroos!But shooting, poisoning and stabbing are still ok!I can really only say, punctuate, Mr Cosby.I just love adventure stories. Sounds exciting!Well, forewarned is forearmed. Phew!Of course! Fishermen crochet their own nets!So? Like, what other about cucumbers then?Don’t you just love down to earth, common sense ‘How To’ books too?Luckily we spell it ‘arse’ in British English. Saves a lot of confusion!Age probably has something to do with it. Ask your pharmacist.
