We know how much you love to laugh so we have created 25 GIFs especially for our Reading Addicts.
Some will produce a wry smile, others will make you shout “I KNOW, RIGHT?!” and many will make you laugh out loud. They are of varying sizes and themes but all will tickle you in some way or other.
We hope you will find a GIF for every bookish eventuality: if not let us know what we have missed and we shall endeavour to produce more funnies for you!
Phew! That’s the first 25… We hope you enjoyed them!
Keep your eyes open for the next 25 GIFs especially created for Reading Addicts…
Happy reading, Addicts.
