Description
Read This Next is a guide to more than 500 great books, many of which you have not yet read. (On average, 481. ) After you have read even one of these books, you will be amazed you survived without it this long. Multiply that by 481, and you get a lifetime of value for just $14. 99 or even more value if you don’t have long to live.
Each book is set among surprising anecdotes, funny discussion questions, and witty commentary by the authors, designed to bring out each book’s best qualities. You’ll find categories that include both old favorites like Love, Work, and Family and the unexpected delights of lists like Death, Drugs, and Apocalypse.
Furthermore, Read This Next is itself a book! Not only does that make the total number of great new books you get 482, but it is a neat postmodern trick that not just anyone could pull off. 99 divided by 481 is ONLY 3 CENTS! What else can you buy for three cents nowadays?
If you have ever enjoyed reading a book, you will enjoy reading Read This Next and the books it leads you to. If you don’t--this month only! --you can have your 3 cents back! (To people trying to cash in by buying multiple copies for the refund: well, you are too smart for us. )
