Reply to comment by belladonna_nectar in why do people get mad over dog-earing books? by Sliver_wolf_1999

I heard about someone who would tear off a few chapters of a paperback (that they own obviously!) so that they can pass the torn part along to friends and family who also want to read it and are eager to start !!!

This was years ago and I still cringe at the thought!

Lol, this made me laugh. Well, they can do whatever they want with their property, I use bad books as a flower press, despite having two real flower presses lol, so I'm no saint either

Only bad books though, right? I like my books in good shape but not as if untouched!
