“Really are spineless” whoever came up with that one deserves the rest of the day off.
-
Pile of books in the corner: “We are the Unreads, our time will come”
-
Academic textbook: “I have so much potential but I cost a fortune and have never been read properly!”
-
The Science Fiction book went to this party in another timeline, in a parallel universe, with a teletransportation device.
-
"SEIZE HIM!!!!" 😂 He couldn't just say "Get him" cos he's a fantasy novel. Very good!
-
Dictionary and Thesaurus turn up and bump into a crosswords book. He would say 'I wonder could I have a word with you two' ... Dictionary could say 'what do you mean'? and then Theasarus could clarify by replying 'conversation, talk, chitchat, consultation, discussion ...... and fade away.
-
I was half expecting Hog to show up as 'Graphic Novel' and look identical to 'Comic' but receive way more respect. While 'Comic' complains about how they are exactly the same.
-
"I feel like people don't respect me" "Well-observed" That hits so subtly.
-
Dictionary getting drunk: "People only care about me when they want to know what someone else said" Manual next to him: "I want to help, but everyone thinks they don't need me"
-
Even other books don't remember to invite Encyclopedia any more. 😢
-
Dictionary comes in: "I have all the answers!"
-
poor second hand book feels used. 🥺 We prefer to say: pre loved 😘
-
Now we just wait "Books throw a party: Second edition"
-
The bookworm and writer in me are squealing with delight. I love all the details and clever puns in this one, short story being smaller than the others, the flip book, the barcode and stamps on library, diary's costume. I could go on and on. Have a wonderful day!
-
Imagine if a Kindle had shown up to the party! It would have been electric!!
-
Bible and Quran generating awkward silence was brilliant! 😂 This sketch is a gold mine!
-
Foil deserves an oscar for the portrayal of the flip book 😂
-
Magazine tried to sneak into the party, but it was stopped at the door. After a brief discussion where it made its case, showing many pictures, it gave up and left. It ended up going to the pub, where it comiserated while talking to its cousin Newspaper, who had also been refused entrance.
-
Paperback: "Sure I'm cheap and I'm fragile but, Darling, I'm an exquisite travel companion."
-
I'll never again think of a "dust jacket" in the same way 🤣
