Not Quite The Harper Lee Classic
Customer: “Excuse me, do you have ‘How to Kill a Mockingjay?'”
Me: *just stare at her, completely caught off-guard by her question* “Did you want ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ or ‘Mockingjay?'”
Customer: “To Kill a Mockingjay!”
Me: “Are you sure?” *I lead her over to the teen section, knowing she wants The Hunger Games book, Mockingjay*
Customer: “That’s it! Hunger Games!”
Me: *sigh*
(She didn’t end up buying it because it was in hardcover and she’d rather wait until it’s in paperback so I’m sure I’ll be asked for “To Kill a Mockingjay” again!)
