If You Want Closure In Your Relationship, Start With Your Legs

Big Boom's self help book "If You Want Closure In Your Relationship, Start With Your Legs" has won the Diagram Prize for Oddest Book Title of the Year. As Joel Rickett, Deputy Editor of The Bookseller, who run the competition, said "It makes redundant an entire genre of self-help tomes. So effective is the title that you don’t even need to read the book itself."

"If You Want Closure in Your Relationship, Start With Your Legs" joins other great titles that have won the Diagram Prize such as "The Stray Shopping Carts of Eastern North America: A Guide to Field Identification" and my personal favourite "Big and Very Big Hole Drilling". That latter title no doubt would intrigue Geoff Manaugh of BldgBlog fame.
