Book Bomb

A coordinated effort to buy an author's book on opening day so as to dramatically increase the author's chance of rising in the ranking system. The higher an author climbs in the ranking system, the more exposure they will get, thus increasing their overall sales of the book.

Example: "Hey OJD, today is Enola Gay's Book Bomb! Don't forget to buy her book "The Prepared Family Cookbook!"

Book Fair

That one thing that schools do where nobody actually gets books, and everyone just gets a UV pen or something like that because usually all the books they have are shit.

Person 1: Hey dude what did you get at the book fair, I got an eraser that looks like a phone.
Person 2: Nice, I got a UV pen!

Boat Book

The colloquial name for that timeless classic, Concepts And Case Analysis in the Law of Contracts (Concepts and Insights), by Marvin A. Chirelstein.

There I was, a Saturday night, with nothing but my Boat Book, a glass of chianti, and all the time in the world.

Book Babe

It is what it says. A hot chick who likes to read and is constantly doing so. Can be found *GASP* in the library, in a cafe, in the back of the classroom, or somewhere quiet. Girls like this are normally hard to find anywhere else. SO DON'T COMPLAIN THAT YOU CAN'T FIND THEM IN A MALL OR OUT IN PUBLIC. They probably don't shop much, or are as giggly as most girls. Some can be EXTREMELY shy, some are abso-fuckinlotley crazy, proceed with caution.

DUUUDE, where are all the hot girls?
Look in the library, there's some book babes.

Mathematic’s books

The best (mis)use of an apostrophe spotted outside a city bookstore in mainland China.

An English tourist (who is a linguist professor back home) was reported to have experienced a seconds-long stroke on seeing the “Mathematic’s books” classification, and the cashier on seeing her customer’s dizziness immediately jumped to her rescue.
