  • books with a daffy duck/bugs bunny dynamic

    this is gonna sound weird, but does anyone have recs for books that have a similar dynamic to bugs bunny & daffy duck from the looney tunes show (2011)?

    if you've never watched it, these compilations might help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yS2IvaaWvFc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUXi52MYRUs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_-Fn0nn678

    the core of it is that they act like a bickering old married couple, but i think what makes it so compelling to me is that they're polar opposites of each other, bugs bunny being highly successful and secure (he gets patent royalties from inventing the carrot peeler) while daffy is a bitter old loser mooching off of bugs, who is still somehow super arrogant, but somehow they make it work.

    i have no preference for whether it's a platonic or romantic relationship (i mean, daffy and bugs are just besties with their own gfs... qpr goals), or the genre, though i would like something more 'domestic' over fantasy/adventure.

    i loved a book so much i stole it from my middle school library - 10+ years later, i still own it and it's still one of my faves (the man in the ceiling by jules feiffer) middle school was also my first intro to a library and i kinda went a bit crazy with what felt like life opening up with all the possibilities.

  • whats your library story?

    Since we all read, i am guessing my fellow pagebounders might also have fun or not library stories.

    i will go first, when i was in primary school my class teacher banned me from going to the library (it was open during lunch) because i was reading too much. Apparently my best friend and i reading next to each other and not talking for 40 minutes wasnt good enough. She knew i was the ring leader of us two, so i got banned for a couple of weeks and if the librarian saw me she chased me out (She was a very nice lady and while my siblings went to the school after me i visited her and got paid to help organise the library in summer so no hard feelings). My best friend still brings it up. Does anyone else have a library story? Anything will do
