People keep telling me they’d read more if they had time. That lame excuse no longer holds water. Behold Book-a-Minute!
Here’s one of my favorites (Frankenstein, by Mary Shelley and ultra-condensed by Andrew C.):
Walton
Dear Margaret: My ship picked up this guy. He RULES.
Frankenstein
I discovered the secret of life, and everyone died. (dies)
Frankenstein’s Monster
Inexplicably, I have become suicidal. (jumps out a window)
THE END
