Would you read the book?


The Book Of Nasty Things.  "Interesting ideas, but the
plot lacks coherence." ...The Basingstoke Literary Review
It's a simple dilemma this month, and it's inspired by the old superstition that if your ears are burning it means someone is talking about you behind your back.  Of course, the superstition isn't true, and if your ears are burning then all it means is that your ears are hot.

However, what if you could actually discover what people had said about you behind your back.  That's the scenario for this month's 'Would You Rather?' dilemma...

A book is on the table in front of you, and inside the book are written all the bad things people have ever said about you behind your back throughout your entire life.  It tells you what they said, who said it and when they said it.

The dilemma is, 'Would you read the book?'

...or that you could never read a book or magazine ever again?


Music or books?
 Two brilliant things but which one would you get rid
of if you had to do without one or the other?
If you went for the first option then you could still hear everything else like conversations and general noises, but you couldn't hear songs or music.

If you went for the second option then you could still read signs and menus and basic stuff like that, but you could never read another book or magazine ever again.

Music and reading are both totally excellent, but the scenario is that you have to get rid of one of them, so which option would you go for?

And remember, you're voting for the option that you'd get rid of.
