CNN ^ | March 9, 2017 | By Alexandra Larkin and Sophie Lewis

(CNN)--Looking for a quick vacation read? It doesn't get any quicker than Michael J. Knowles' "Reasons To Vote For Democrats" -- all of the pages are blank.

Knowles is a Yale graduate and correspondent for the Daily Wire, a conservative website. He self-published the book, which contains only headers and a bibliography, along with 266 empty pages. The book, a clear attempt to troll Democrats, has set the internet on fire and vaulted to the No. 1 bestseller spot on Amazon.

"What's really great about this book, you can go cover to cover in about 15, 20 seconds," Knowles said on "Fox & Friends" Thursday.

The book's Amazon page touts it as "the most exhaustively researched and coherently argued Democrat Party apologia to date." "'Reasons To Vote For Democrats: A Comprehensive Guide' is a political treatise sure to stand the test of time," the description reads. "A must-have addition to any political observer's coffee table." It ends with a one-word review from conservative political commentator Ben Shapiro: "Thorough. . ."

Current look up items are expensive baby stuff, 7th grand on the way. Who has time for stupidity, I don’t.

Rory Feek’s new book on his wife Joey was my last book purchase. A true love story of a musical duo and their downs baby Indiana Boone Feek. Sad ending though. Christian themed.

One’s in the mail to me right now. The price has actually gone up about a buck since I bought it.

It’ll be the “man’s present” at the Christmas gathering of wife’s extended family (mostly democrat...some very far left). Presents are anonymous and chosen by numbered draw. If I’m lucky, it’ll wind up in our trash and I can recovery it...and give it again the following year. Should be fun.

I wonder if it’s copyrighted. If someone “writes” another blank book, will the “author” of this one sue?

No kidding. Her headlights went out on her car, and he couldn’t/wouldn’t help her. She decided to try to replace them herself. She went to Auto Zone, and the men there replaced it for her.

What’s funny is he couldn’t go to her sorority formal with her because he was at the DNC meeting a few week’s ago.

She took a gay friend, and she said she was glad because the gay friend was more fun than the boyfriend.

Yes, once I made a post that had an egregious error (criticized someone mistakenly). I begged the mods to delete it and they did that.

The author first self-published and self-promoted the book and said he was making money. Then Amazon took notice and made a deal with him. The author was on FOX and Friends this morning. That’s probably when the book sold out.

“The reviews on Amazon.com are hilarious.”

I like it when the author allows us to draw our own conclusions....
