  • Books as Clickbait Headlines

    Someone on reddit asked what the titles of your favorite book would be if it was a clickbait headline.

    Teenage Sex Slave is Given to Sociopathic Conqueror. You Won't Believe What Happens Next!

    Wow, it sounds...trashy..when you put it that way.

        Ooh, can I do this for the novel I'm writing?

        This Priest Has a Dirty Secret...And It's Not What You Think!

        Alternatively...

        This Man is Older Than You Think. His Secret to Staying Young Will Shock You!

        Though that could just as easily pass for a clickbait headline for The Picture of Dorian Gray...

              Will true love save this teenage girl from the cancer that threatens to kill her? Read to find out!
              "I look at the stars. It's a clear night and the Milky Way seems so near. That's where I'll be going soon. "We are all star stuff." I suddenly remember Delenn's line from Joe's script. Not a bad prospect. I am not afraid. In the meantime, let me close my eyes and sense the beauty around me. And take that breath under the dark sky full of stars. Breathe in. Breathe out. That's all."

                  Painters hate him. One boy's trick on getting his fence painted will shock you.

                  This should be obvious.
                  This site proves Corey Taylor right. Man really is a "four letter word."

                    Haha, very clever! Tom Sawyer. And Ghel's is The Fault in Our Stars. Stumped by the newspaper one.

                    This turned into a game. I like it!

                        I almost felt I made it sound too normal. I'd be interested to see if someone could come up with a headline for Hogfather.
