There’s a special place in hell for people who ruin a book for a meme.
Is basically the same place where the deep-shit who burned books are roasted inside boilers. But you just stay outside, tied to a confortable door watching them burn from porthole of the hatch. Then once in a while a big green like button lit up and a steam of vapor boils your face.
Captivating fanfic of Harry Potter. lol
50 shades of grey was originally a fanfic of twilight.
Not every book written is a literary masterpiece.
I dog ear every book I read.
Book could have already been damaged to be fair. Does it matter if it’s just ruining it more?
Have you ever read a Clive Cussler novel? That shit is everywhere and they’re objectively terrible. I would not shed a single tear for the smug fuck who wrote them if all his books got bean stains on them.
I like Clive Cussler novels and I still agree with you, lol. They’re stupid fun, a cross between James Bond and Indiana Jones but not quite as good as either.

your enthusiasm for protecting books is commendable, but not all books deserve your reverence. Mein Kampf comes to mind, and some more recent books that only spread hate and prejudice.
I do just fine with an e-reader. keep the classy pinky up and clear for page turning cleanly
Is a first edition of Harry Potter actually valuable?
Iirc, the first few are 10k and up for actual first prints. The first one had like 500 printed only. After the third or so, they become much less valuable.
Damn.
Sometimes when I do this, I imagine an archaeologist finding my book millennia from now and surmising my diet from the accidental smears.
“We have found that Canadians circa 2000-2050 enjoyed a diet that included tangerines and microwave burritos”
