If Book Nerds ran the world...

[Joseph]

Then:
1. Release dates would be national holidays
2. Books would be waterproof
3. Book trailers would come with all cars
4. 24-hour bookstores would be mandatory
5. "Reading Days" would be the new sick days.

What would you add to the list?

[Lin]

I love your list. Approve of them all

[Tamara]

I especially like 1 and 4.

[John]

I do not understand what number 3 is??? I like number 5.

John, you need to have somewhere to put your books when you go traveling so you always have something to read, right? :-)

[Lin]

Lol, I thought it referred to trailers made for books like movie trailers.

Authors would be the new rock stars...(suggested by a friend)

Damn you Joseph, I am going crazy trying to think of a number 6 and so far failing to do so. BUT I WILL DO IT IF IT TAKES ALL NIGHT. NO I will not, I would rather read tonight. Perhaps it will come to me in my dreams.

I really like your number 6.

I would add: Unless you are a reader yourself you can't ask "is that book any good?" and waste my reading time because you want to talk but not about books.

The New York Times Book Review (or something similar) would be the default screen saver on computers when shipped.

I would add time or a day off for the relief of having a book hangover.

Reading day would be a federal holiday.

[Kate]
