Today's mini-challenge for the Bout of Books Read-a-Thon at
On a Book Bender is to
write one or two haikus based on the books we've read for the read-a-thon. I couldn't resist, so here are the two haikus I entered:
1. The machine of death,
Supposed to be for our good,
Will always laugh last.
Based on Machine of Death: A Collection of Stories About People Who Know How They Will Die by Ryan North et al., which I'm currently reading.
2. Dear Mina: the Count
Is super creepy. I think
He wants to eat me.
Based on Bram Stoker's Dracula.
