Book Report....Cactus Style?

I love reading and I love succulent cacti (not the greenest thumb over here but I love having plants and flowers in the house, so since succulents never die, so it's a match made in heaven!). But how do I feel about a literal combination of the two?
I think it's cute, though I wouldn't be able to read that book very well...hmmm...
