words don’t sell books, pictures do!

Last Light
The way to promote mountains of text is through mountains of pictures. Here’s a book that might attract a few visionaries, who happen to ‘gleee’ at the thought of being scared to death about what happens to humanity when the worlds oil runs out.

the average american male
Wow, this is a good’un. A cool front cover, not that many pages (250ish), tiny chapters (the first is called ‘Christmas with Mom and Dad’ and the word count is 3 ‘Same old bullshit’) perfect. It gets better. Apparently it sparked a youtube storm… which is probably a load of bollocks as I haven’t had chance to check it out yet… but the story is about a guy thats young enough to know what he wants in life (sex) and old enough to know what he doesn’t want in life (commitment… and a partner with a fat ass). This book is absolutely incredible, I only bought it today and have read half of it already and I don’t want it to ever end. If this was a blog or a channel on youtube, I’d check it out every day for years. Women need to read this to know how we (men) think… and men need to read this to laugh at how fucking ridiculous we are and confirm that we’re not alone. Oh and the paper is average, loads of dialogue (makes for quick reading), smallish font (boo!) … standard margins… nothing special on the formating front but the subject matter is worth it.

A full 5 stars awarded. If you don’t buy this book, you are an arse.

Edit: a youtube frenzy? uhh no. However the clips are funny:
