If we're shooting books how bout "Dreams From My Father" or "The Communist Manifesto?"

That video made me cringe.

Damaging books is still taboo I guess.

I am surprised that nobody is commenting on the marksmanship of the guy who shot the books.

BTW - This erases all of my buyer's remorse over my custom Kevlar Nook cover.

Thanks to Lissa at the last NE Bloggershoot we conclusively proved that books != cover...

Jay: Is that a book shouldn't be judged by its cover, or books make bad cover?

Still it does slow them down, and initiate expansion on expanding ammo, so while I won't trust my life to it, anything that bleeds energy off of a projectile is better than nothing!

Will books save my life?

Hmmmm, depends. Have I hollowed one out to carry my gun?
