Reddit publishes real-life dead-tree book of its “best” AMAs

In a rather odd move, community hub Reddit has published a book of what it believes to be its best Ask Me Anything subreddit snippets. For the princely sum of $34.99 in the US only (or $4.99, £3.28 for an e-book version in the UK) you too can be the proud owner of a collection of soundbites from Reddit oddities and famous celebrities immortalised in physical form.

Split into categories that include "Inspiring," "Ingenious," and "Fascinating," the book includes contributions from the likes of Idris Elba, Sir David Attenborough, and Denzel Washington, the latter of which spills the beans on "Why he doesn't want movie star friends," and what his favourite pizza topping is (it's plain old tomato and mozzarella, in case you were wondering).

Some of the wackier AMAs make an appearance too, including "The Man Who Died Twice," "My Ex Tried to Kill Me," and of course "Double Dick Dude." There's also neat artwork and introductions from redditors at the beginning of each AMA. Naturally, you can just read all the AMAs in the book online for free over at Reddit, although, given Reddit's AMA navigation isn't exactly simple, that they've been collated and edited down does make them easier to digest.
