Unhelpful suggestions offered to Katherine for a cover blurb for her company's new book on the Marquis de Sade

  • "de Sade? Not bad!"
  • "120 Days of Awesome!"
  • "The name on the marquee says de Sade!"
  • "If you don't pick up this book and become a Sadist right away, you're a masochist!"
  • "Reading this book isn't like getting brutally sodomized ... but it's the next best thing!"
  • "The most perverted book available anywhere!"

In this case, you seem to have saved the best for first. I think I would actually make that purchase.

See, that was my first rejected suggestion. Always trust your first instinct. That said, I would definitely buy a book with the last blurb.

Also, the third one is targeted specifically toward Arn Anderson fans. There's probably more sadism/pro wrestling fans than you might think at first.
