Click-Bait Books! | Readathon Mini-Challenge


We live in a world full of clickbait. It's so pervasive, we even continually joke and meta joke about it. So how about we have a little fun of our own? Let's make books clickbait!



But let's not go with just any book. This challenge of mine isn't as original as I had initially thought, and there are many sites about classic books as clickbait. So, what I would like you to do is comment on this post and tell me your current or most recent read's title, author and their clickbait title!

You don't have to post pictures of the cover design. Just tell me your book and how you could turn it into clickbait. If you're having trouble coming up with ideas, click on the images in this post and they'll take you to a couple sites that give really funny examples!
