Recently, the hashtag #bookswithalettermissing came back to life after a two-year hiatus as social media users again shared their creative ideas complete with full photos of famous book covers.
The hashtag basically explains itself and focuses on witty and funny results should famous titles be lacking one letter.
One user immediately retweeted a photoshopped copy of ?The Da Vinci Cod? featuring the fish instead of the famous Mona Lisa. Paul Andrew Bronks shared ?Little Hose On The Prairie ? a cautionary tale of woefully inadequate firefighting equipment?.
User George Renner shared ?Orwell: 198 ? Censorship and oppression in the declining Roman Empire under Septimus Severus?.
Here are some of the most interesting things we've seen.
A lot more Twitter users joined to remove letters from several book titles, changing the meaning entirely into hilarious lines. The hashtag immediately went up to the top of trending topics on the social media site. There were several other online users who observed and commented on the most attractive covers.
Even celebrated Canadian writer Margaret Atwood could not resist and posted, ?You kids are so smart!? Her literary piece, ?A Handmaid?s Tale? was again back on the list as two online users shared, ?The Handmaid?s Ale. Served at all the best dystopian bars.? and ?A Handmaid?s Ale ? Margaret Atwood?s spookily plausible story about artisan microbrews in a future theocracy.?
To date, the hashtag has generated over 12,000 tweets and made 10.6 million impressions.
