Twitterature is a really cute parody mash-up of classic and modern literature, and the social networking craze. It's a quirky, easy and light-hearted read for any book-lover. Telling their famous stories, through tweets of 125 characters or less, the main protagonist in all the stories takes you on a quick and hilarious journey. It's also a really good idea for Kris Kringle, or as a stocking filler. Just make sure you're read all of the books in there before you give it a read, because it does contain spoilers.

Favorites were Harry Potter (1-7), The Hobbit, and Eugene Onegin. Unfortunately the LOLZ did not entirely outweigh the groans, the fact that it's written by a couple of college boys would explain the fact that the humor is overwhelmingly 'dudish'.
Obnoxious and silly, but it cracked me right up.
From Medea:
Finally moved into the new place. Jason can find a respectable job, I'll stay home and raise the kids.
-----
Seems "respectable job" means screwing the king's daughter. Not cool.
See what I mean?

This is a drag.. 2020 I’m dropping books I’m not enjoying and finishing more books I like.. and won’t feel guilty about leaving a book half unread!!
Not reading this book in a linear manner. Jumping around, it will be an on-going read.
A very funny book. I really enjoyed this and have read certain entries multiple times. It is definitely more fun if you have read the books referenced.
Not for those who are easily offended by some of their favorite books being poked fun at, but nonetheless, a clever concept.

Some of the tweets did make me chuckle, but they're mostly written as a cringey interpretation of how people present themselves on Twitter.
ADDITIONALLY, slight error in the passage on Romeo and Juliet ("wherefore art thou Romeo" is interpreted as "where are you, Romeo?") which indicates that the writers a) did not do their research b) fail at their aim to make classics more digestible to a younger audience!
