What's the world coming to when there is a "Tragic Life Stories" section in the books department of WH Smith? Good to know it's not all doom and gloom out there...
@Delicious: Yeah, the animals was the first thing I noticed too. They all seem to be cats and dogs. I have no idea what these books would be about, and I'd rather not take the time to read them.
Tragic.
ReplyDeleteWhy do they all have animals on the covers? Weird!
ReplyDeleteyou'd have thought it would be a bigger section.

ReplyDeleteThey're known in the trade as the 'boo-fucking-hoo' books. One man, Andrew Groves, writes a large number of them.
