Today, on books that actually exist:

How to Marry Napoleon Bonaparte, by Jessica Sarah.

So, you have a fancy for Napoleon Bonaparte? <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 That is alright. In the grand scheme of things, in all of the wonderful wonderfulness of life itself, in all the majesty of life, one person stands out from them all—Napoleon Bonaparte. Napoleon Bonaparte is the most cute, most adorable, most fanciful French Empire Leader of them all. He is handsome, lovable, unique, and tickles the fancy of man and woman alike. Some people may think they are an awful, ruthless French Empire Leader, but you know better. Deep down in your heart of hearts, the French Empire Leader makes you giddy inside. A horrible tyrant?! No he is darn cute. You have probably developed a fancy, starting in your early, formative years, for the wonderful cute one who is Napoleon Bonaparte. A sociopath? A cunning creature? A monster? Nah. Napoleon Bonaparte is your future spouse and you're hard pressed on making it so. In How to Marry Napoleon Bonaparte: A Complete Guide to Marrying the World's Most Adorable Man, you will find a tailor-made solution to the question "How Do I Marry Such A Lovable Creature??" (A time machine may be necessary.)

Admittedly, this is probably just a troll, since it's a 18 pages book and this is not a question the entire world is wanting to know the answer to. Anyway, it does exist. So, take a look... I guess.

me: I really like history

what some ppl think I mean, and understandably so: eheheh I like military history

what I mean: people are and have always been fucking crazy and it's very entertaining to find out what they were up to. it's like drama but like three centuries old.
