Ketiil
Hi, I'm new, and I joined to express my hate for pocketbooks which when read get ugly lines on the back, where the book twists and bends when I read them. I hate those lines so much. Ruins my books. Stupid lines.

Ketiil Cold atm, alot of snow. Been snowing alot for the past few weeks. Snow everywhere. I also hate snow. Its too cold and too wet. But it's nice to look at though. Hows New York?

Amanda (randymandy) You should tell that to Jeff Besos. He needs to get some more items in the Pro column for the Kindle.

Did you guys see him on The Daily Show the other day? He was LOL-ing all over the place. I loved it! It almost makes me want to start shopping at Amazon again...

I don't understand Ketiil's original complaint in this thread. The back of the pocketbook gets ugly lines. Isn't a pocketbook a wallet? I don't get it.

Rusty (rustyshackleford) | 2198 comments I think she's referring to a paperback, but I have to say that I wouldn't respect anyone who had a prisitine-looking paperback after a good read. It's like those kids whose action figures have all their limbs, weapons, no scratches, burn marks, gouges, etc. It tells me they never really played with them.

Paperback are designed to be twisted, stuffed into pockets, written-on, in, etc.

My beautiful copy of Crime and Punishment is pretty much demolished, as I'm a hundred pages from the end and I typically shove it in my purse or roll onto it in my sleep. I've sure enjoyed it, though.


message 16: by [deleted user] (new)

Of course, Nick thinks I only read "Moosey Moose."


message 17: by Dave (new)

Dave Russell How do you roll over it in your sleep? Do you leave it on the bed? No nightstand?


message 18: by [deleted user] (new)

I leave it on my bed. With about 983457 other books.


message 19: by [deleted user] (new)

I have a nightstand. It has lots of books on it. And a snail statue.


message 20: by [deleted user] (new)

I'm a slob.


message 21: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (randymandy) When I worked at a theatre in Rhode Island, I didn't have an office, so I slept with all my paperwork on my bed. Plus books. And other fun stuff like fabric rainbow leis. It was the best. Surely that doesn't make you a slob, Rambo, just a loving adorer of your things.


message 22: by Ketiil (new)

Ketiil Rusty, why would you assume that im a girl?


message 23: by Rusty (new)

Rusty (rustyshackleford) | 2198 comments Sorry, not always good with my pronouns.


Reads with Scotch I thought you were a girl too...

Mainly because I get braided by my wife often for the condition of my books when I am done reading them. My wife is the type that will kill if the cover is molested in any way.

She also collects non-personalized signed first edition books. She has been on a kick for the last year or two about me building an environmentally controlled library to store her valuable books in. humidity and temp control. Bookshelves with glass doors and all that. I drew up some real nice plans but have not started as of yet.
