books meet movies, but not how you think.

so i never thought i would buy a book because of a trailer, but today i did. i came across this a couple of days ago, but just got around to purchasing it, and also posting it. ‘the secret life of johnny bunko’ actually has a film trailer (posted below). basically it seems like one of those mid-twenties what am i doing with my life type things, but actually in a fun way. not like a dry or boring self-reflective thing written by someone 100 years older than me. not that i read those types of books, but i hear things… anyway, i just got the book today because i got a borders coupon in the e-mail and decided to pick it up. i’ll let you know if it’s good or not in post form when i’m done, but if the creative idea for marketing the book is any indication, it should be great. enjoy the clip.
