I've learned a new term today: "crashed books". I couldn't find an official definition on Wikipedia or anywhere else, but this is how Publisher's Weekly describes the latest quick-to-press books on Gov. Sarah Palin. It seems "crashed books" are ones that are written and published quickly in response to a new trend, personality, or news event.
In addition to Epicenter Press' reprint of Sarah Palin's first biography Sarah and Zondervan's recent announcement of its own book Sarah Palin: A New Kind of Leader, Publisher's Weekly reports that Adams Media will publish 101 Things You--and John McCain--Didn't Know about Sarah Palin by Gregory Bergman. It will be available the first week of October. Based on the title, this one should please hateful Democrats and the Liberal Media alike. Mr. Gregory is the author of such masterpieces as The Little Book of Bathroom Philosophy: Daily Wisdom from the World's Greatest Thinkers and WTF?: How to Survive 101 of Life's Worst F*#!-ing Situations. Can't wait to read this one.
