I mentioned the other day that “bullar” was one of the most popular search terms for people finding my blog. Some things are, well, a little more obscure. Lately, I have had people find me looking for answers to questions that I do not answer on my blog, but I could in fact answer in real life. I kind of want to hunt them down and give them the answers they sought, but alas, that is impossible. But, just in case they ever turn up here again, here are a few recent ones:
“What do you call the books where you pick what happens next by choosing different pages numbers?”
What is…a choose your own adventure book!!
“Is The Tenant of Wildfell Hall a fairy tale?”
Oh! I know, I know! *ding* No, it’s not! But it is darned good book anyway, so you should go out and read it.
Some people ask questions that sounds like how long is a piece of string like the not one but two people who asked, “How many tales in Beowulf?”
And this one wasn’t even a question:
“book hidden in stacks lost spain novel bookstore”
But I bet I know the answer — Carlos Ruiz Zafon’s The Shadow of the Wind. Another darned good book that begins in a bookstore in Spain.
But the search string I am most proud of was the day someone found me by actually googling “dominican bitches.” Yessssss.
Hey, Lucy, I tagged you for a meme if you want to play!
Let’s boost that Google ranking a bit more. Dominican bitches from hell discuss books, medieval history, Barack Obama, and swedish cooking. With style, no less. Enjoy your strange queries!
OMG, lol!!! 🙂
Worthy of having a book written about!! :)))))
