Remember back in the early 2010s when any moderately popular Twitter account could become a book (or even a TV series (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shit_My_Dad_Says))?

This is a collection of Tweet-sized “overheard in” stories. All set in book shops.

Isn’t it funny that some people don’t know how books work! ROFL!

Aren’t the general public strange? LOLOL!

That’s a bit harsh of me. It only rarely becomes mean-spirited. But in a book this short, it rather contaminates the joy.

That said, this one will live rent-free in my head for a while:

Did Beatrix Potter ever write a book about dinosaurs?

It’s the sort of stocking-filler book which is reasonable for perusing on the loo. Light-hearted but ultimately disposable.

Still, at least Neil Gaiman found it funny enough to leave a blurb…
