Our Favorite Better Book Titles

Sometimes, you need to judge a book by its cover. After all, you’ve got stuff to do, and if it can’t be summarized in 140 characters, it’s probably not worth a read anyway, right? Or something?

That’s where Better Book Titles comes in. Dan Wilbur Photoshops what he believes to be more accurate (not to mention more hilarious) titles onto book covers. As he writes on the site, “This blog is for people who do not have thousands of hours to read book reviews or blurbs or first sentences. I will cut through all the cryptic crap, and give you the meat of the story in one condensed image. Now you can read the greatest literary works of all time in mere seconds!”
