The Book Lover's Joke Book is a hilarious collection of jokes about books that will have you laughing out loud. From writers, agents, publishers, librarians, grammar, poetry, bookcases, and lightbulbs, this book has it all. There are rib-ticklers for typographers, crackers for critics, and cleverly foxed quips about antiquarian bookshops. Not to mention the best literary April Fool's jokes, rejection letters, cookbook jests, and wardrobe puns. Whether you're in the library or just browsing through your bookshelf, this delightful literary celebration is sure to make every bibliophile chuckle.

One of my favorite jokes in the book is about The Picture of Dorian Gray. It never gets old, and I always love telling people spoilers about it. Another one that I find particularly funny is the one about Wally always wearing a stripey shirt. Why? Because he doesn't want to be spotted!

There are also some great comparisons between Romeo and Juliet and COVID-19. One is a coronavirus, and the other is a Verona crisis. And who was JRR Tolkien's favorite singer? Elvish Presley, of course!

Overall, The Book Lover's Joke Book is a must-read for anyone who loves books and laughter. It's a perfect gift for book lovers, and it's sure to bring a smile to your face. So, why not add it to your collection today? You won't be disappointed!
