I’ve decided to start a series. I thought of a great name for it. I thought the name should be “Book Reviews of Books that have been Reviewed way too much.” But then I decided that was way too long, so I switched it to “Book reviews of books that have been reviewed 100 times.” It’s a little catchier, maybe, but still too long.

So I picked out a good thinking rock and I pondered, with one hand under my chin and my other arm draped across my knee. I sat that way for a while, just thinking and staring at the ground. Then it hit me.

“Book reviews of books you should’ve already read.” Thinner by two words, sleeker, shinier. But it still didn’t have that something, that oomph that makes you want to park and read through my thoughts on some classics. I needed something better. Something catchier.
