Odd Book Titles

Bookseller Magazine has announced the finalists for its “Oddest Title of the Year” contest:

I voted for “Cheese Problems Solved” because it is obviously the “oddest.”

But “How to Write a How to Write Book” and “If You Want Closure in Your Relationship, Start With Your Legs” are funny. But not really very odd.

What to do?

I’m certainly eager to read one that failed to make the shortlist, “Tiles of the Unexpected: A Study of Six Miles of Geometric Tile Patterns on the London Underground.”

What really intrigues me though is that the spotter of the winning book receives a magnum of champagne.

A MAGNUM OF CHAMPAGNE!!!

My eyes for odd book titles are officially peeled.
