I am returning with my feature... Why I love which takes place on Wednesdays. Today's proclamation of love concerns our Favorite Book Titles
Why I Love...The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
I absolutely had to pick The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society as my favorite title. I think it has the makings of a horrible title: long and weird. But I truly think the title sold me on this book. I was like... "What the heck?!" I'm sure this is the reaction of anyone who sees it. I see "Literary" and "Potato Peel Pie" and then "Society" and none of those phrases seem as if they should go together. Seeing as how I'm such a curious person, I had to get to the bottom of this utter ridiculousness. I opened this book and was immediately transported into this adorable story. The title has meaning and the reader finds out pretty quickly where it comes from. After reading it, I felt there could be no other name for this book after all.
I don't want to divulge the meaning of the title but I can say, if it wasn't for its strangeness, I would have never read this book. And boy would I have missed out.
Picking a favorite title is such an arbitrary thing. What do you base it on? I'm looking forward to finding out what everyone chooses.
