50 Of The Best Pics From This Facebook Group Dedicated To Weird And Absurd Signs Spotted Around The World

That’s too funny

This is actually strangely effective

the work of a desperate book seller turned genius by his agony

I must admit, I believe this type of display would attract sales! I’m a lover of stories & I’m not gonna lie; if I was looking for something new to read & I saw books arranged by colour, I’d immediately explore my fave colours! Better yet, perhaps they could arrange books in rainbow-coloured order for events that acknowledge the LGBT community! I’d definitely be sold on that idea & I’d be more inclined to spend a small fortune on books if they were displayed in such fashion! 🥰💖📚👏🌈

Years ago, I worked for a bookstore, and in a RARE bit of forethought, the folks at corporate came up with a great idea - the Oprah table. I lost count of how many people came in, looking for a book they had heard about on Oprah's show, but could not remember the title or anything else about, who would give me bear hugs for showing them the Oprah table, with the book they were looking for right there.

I don't remember the title, but when I opened it, it had a lot of words inside.

Omg our lives are saved!

'Never judge a book by its cover

Every bookstore worker's helper, honest. ...But eventually when you work there long enough, you actually end up knowing which book they're talking about!!

What a great idea. Whatever gets eyes to words is a win.

Librarian nightmares on display.

I read a book in high school, that stuck with me, but couldn't remember the title. So years later I went to my local library. They had me write down whatever I could remember about the story, and they'd have a different librarian have a look at it. I ended up filling a whole a4 sheet with a rambling plot outline and random episodes from the story. They found the book!

As a librarian I totally agree with the spirit os that sign

There's a bookstore in Ocracoke, NC called Books To Be Red.

MY PEOPLE, at last I've found you.

I used to work in a bookshop, this is spot on!

...until it's reissued in a different color.

Sounds about like: "I don't know the name, but it's a white oval pill..."

Great for people who like to order their books by colour *shudder*

Helpful actually. I like it a lot!

Love this!

This would help me so much

Great for those with a bad memory but why stop at red?
