What I Found in the Dollar Store Again

     Today I went to the Dollar store with my mom. While mom was looking at birthday cards, I decided to look at the books. Upon looking at the books that nobody seems to care about, I spotted a book that made me laugh hysterically. The book was titled How to Survive Bird Flu. Does anyone even remember the Bird Flu? I think that we have all forgotten about that. Anyway Seeing a book about surviving a major epidemic seems to be ironic that a what I like to call a "Fad Scare" book.
     To me this book is more of a joke like a book on how to survive the Y2K bug if anyone still even remembers that. Books that are written to scare someone into actually buying a book on surviving the Bird Flu are just get rich quick schemes. This isn't the 1950s where we should be scared of a Soviet nuclear attack. You see in 1918 when there was a flu epidemic this book would have sold like hotcakes. Now when you publish a book on how to survive the Bird Flu nobody gives a hoot about it, and you sell like maybe 5 copies. I wasn't going to waste my hard earned Dollar plus 6% PA sales tax on a 80 page book on a dead topic. See nobody cares about the bird flu epidemic anymore.

What I Found In the Dollar Store

On Monday I went to the grocery store with my mother. I got bored in the grocery store and decided that I would go in Dollar Tree. While I was in Dollar Tree, I was looking at the books and I found two books written by Kate Gosselin. I did not buy these books because I hate Kate Gosselin. I won't go into detail why. The Question Remains why are Kate Gosselin's books in the dollar store. Here is my guesses why they are there.
   1. She is washed up. The first reason I thought why her books were in the dollar store was because her Show on TLC got canceled and that she is washed up and nobody gives a damn about her anymore.
   2. Her books were not selling well. My second theory is that her books were not selling well. I guess that if your books aren't breaking the bank you are going to have to sell them at the dollar store. Who would even read this is beyond me. I wouldn't touch the books with a 10 foot pole. Also for the price of $1 plus the PA 6% sales tax is still to expensive for a book written by a person who should not even be famous in the first place. To top that giving the book away for free is still expensive.
    3. Writing books about your troubles raising multiple kids is vomit inducing. If I had to choose to read her books or watch a marathon of Hannah Montana, I would have to pick Hannah Montana even though I despise her too. I mean who want's to read a book about someone who has 8 kids. It's boring and pointless. I know I don't. Writing a book about your kids is like saying pity me for I am divorced and have 8 kids and my show got canceled buy my book that is probably ghost written and support my kids. Yeah that is how I see that situation.
