Licking the Bottom of the Love Jar: A Dark Collection of Supernatural Short Stories About Love

 


Licking the Bottom of the Love Jar:

A Dark Collection of Supernatural Short Stories About Love


You don't want to know what a love jar is.
Nobody will ever tell you what a love jar is. 


Love! Love lost. Love gained. Romance. Sexual tension. Secure relationships. Reckless marriages. Accidental children. Boring families. Divorce. Death. It's funny until it's not. It's a horror most of the time. Love is disgusting, regardless.

What's at the bottom of the love jar? Twenty writings that ask the important questions, such as:

  • Can a snake and a rabbit overcome the obstacles of their forbidden love?
  • Can the boy get the girl even when incapacitated by depression?
  • Can the power of two siblings single-handedly defeat climate change?
  • Can a couple survive the loss of their child while stranded on a foreign planet?
  • Can you overpower a witch using beer alone?
  • Can we prevent contagious diseases while our cat insists on tonguing its rectum?
  • Can you even tolerate poetry?


Suppose you enjoy the dark surrealism of 
Franz Kafka's existentialism, the peculiar imagination of Roald Dahl's whimsy, or the allegorical terror of George Orwell's satire. In that case, you'll adore Licking the Bottom of the Love Jar. It is Jared Woods' seventh publication, but he is best known as the former writer for the YouTube channel Pencilmation, where some of his episodes have reached over 100 million views.

Buy the book now! But be warned: you'll never find out what the love jar is. We're not joking.
