This week's post prompt is... Give  a  funny  blurb  to  a  book  that  will  "tickle"   those  who  haven't  read  the  book  yet... I'm so not good at book blurbs! The only one I can think of is Twilight . Meet Bella Swan. A total introvert who's angry all the time. Then one day she notices a really hot guy named Edward Cullen.

Do you have any funny book blurbs?
