Which book has the worst tag line (the blurb on the front cover)?
I just read Shannon's Story. Its tag line is, "Shannon wouldn't do anything bad, would she?" Awful.
One of the absolute worst I've ever read is Stacey's Ex-Boyfriend - "What's wrong with Robert?" How... suspenseful.

Most were just bland. They really liked to use italics too. Kristy at Bat "Batter Up!" Redundant much? Jessi and the Dance School Phantom "Someone- or some thing- is out to get Jessi!" Weird. Why did they make it sound like BSC was going supernatural? Kristy Thomas, Dog Trainer "Kristy is a dog's best friend." Just look what they called Mary Anne!  |

Kristy Thomas, Dog Trainer "Kristy is a dog's best friend." Just look what they called Mary Anne! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That made me laugh!!!!! Wow, some of these were awful. One that comes to mind is "Christmas Chiller"... It's beginning to look a lot like...danger! It's *kind of* clever but annoying at the same time. Kristy and the Missing Child - Everyone in Stoneybrook is shocked. Jake is gone - for *real*. (Really? I thought it was just for kicks). Logan's Story - Nobody's going to call Logan a girl and get away with it. (So what is he going to do? Sick the BSC on them?) Kristy in Charge - Who's the boss? (This just speaks for itself...) |

Stacey vs. the BSC - "Stacey could never outgrow the BSC... could she?" Like friends never outgrow each other.

These made ME laugh, lol. Some of Karen's were pretty bad if I recall... |

aww, i actually really liked "it's beginning to look a lot like danger." bonus points because it comes with a built-in tune to sing it to.

Ohmygosh! hahaha! Thanks for pointing that out! I'm imagining all the BSCers singing that song now.

^ I do too, lol.
I love the emphasis on Kristy's Mystery Admirer... Who is sending Kristy <i>love letters?</i> Although it'd be funnier if the italics were on Kristy!

These are funny. We should find more worst tagline.
