Updating book titles for the Amazon Age

Scott Simpson (of You Look Nice Today fame) started a thread about revisiting classic book titles so they’d sell on Amazon/get featured on The Daily Show.

You know, the  “Interesting preposition: Enticing promise of the position, comma, and something wacky” variety.

Features:

Then: The Hobbit
Now: Bilbo Baggins and the Mountain Dragon: Part 1 of 4 of the Middle Earth Cycle

Then: Pride and Prejudice
Now: How to Land a Rich Man…and Fall in Love With His Surly Demeanor, Too!

Then: The Wealth of Nations
Now:  Invisible Hands: The Mysterious Market Forces That Control Our Lives and How to Profit from Them
