Virtually Solid

An eBook is a virtual entity. When a nearby person needs a good head thwacking, some readers attest that virtually bopping someone with a virtual book fails to meet their needs. Sure, the book’s characters may come to life and rampage through one’s imagination, but for some readers, that doesn’t help them knock some sense into someone who desperately needs it.

Some readers may want more than a virtual story. They long for a physical format they can hold that can also be used to whack someone or something whenever necessary. Paperback books provide the tactile sensation of holding a book, but the thwacking sound is not always satisfactory. For discriminating readers, that thin, whimpy thud of a paperback on someone’s cranium just will not do.

Readers with a passion for literature and a sociopathic need to bonk skulls insist on hardback books. There’s nothing quite like the resonant, and somewhat musical smack of a proper hardback book on a head to deliver the desired message. It says, “Yes, I did that and I’m serious about it.” It also says, “Keep it up, volume 2 is bigger.”

If you’re one of those readers, I have something for you. I now have three books available in a hardback version. I can see that sly grin from here. Somewhere nearby, someone else is inching towards the door. Well, they would if someone would knock some sense into them.

For situations where a light tap on the noggin will suffice, I recommend the hardback edition of Deeply Disturbed Donuts. Here’s a link to all of the versions of this book. https://books2read.com/u/47NMZA

If you need to old school on someone’s dome, Reality Challenged produces a mid-ranged, highly resonant thud. Here are the links to this option. https://books2read.com/b/bQZZJP

Finally, when words alone just will not do, Blithering Genius, the largest of these three books, is certain to deliver that deep, neck shortening whump. Here’s the link for this tome. https://books2read.com/u/mBeMPk
