RP Minis is a novelty gift book imprint from Running Press that publishes miniature editions on a wide range of topics. The series includes literary collections, quotation books, and pop culture items spanning from 2008 to 2020.
The literary side of the catalog covers authors from Charles Dickens and Thomas Hardy to James Joyce and the Brontes, each in a palm-sized edition. The quotation books feature figures like Winston Churchill and Oscar Wilde. On the quirkier end, The Zombie Gnome Defense Guide (2018) and X-Rated Cocktails (2015) show the imprint’s willingness to go wherever a fun miniature book might sell.
Bad Dogs Have More Fun (2008) was the earliest entry, followed by a heavy concentration of titles in 2013 and 2014. Later additions like Clueless (2020), Crystals (2020), and Dreams (2020) shifted toward pop culture and wellness topics. The small size and low price point make these books popular as stocking stuffers and novelty gifts.
