I never fold pages. I will use a candy wrapper before I folded a page.

Me neither. I think it's a habit that got installed by reading lots of library books, so that would have been disrespectful. And now it's just something that I can't really see myself doing. Although I have to say that books with cracked spines and folded pages have their own appeal

candy wrapper

I get freaked out when paperback covers get a little bent at the edges.

I was just pulling out a random item when I said candy wrapper. Never actually used one.

Yes, got to respect the library books

I have been buying some books from a secondhand place and some are cracked and worn. But it's to be expected when it's second or third hand.

Does it make you wish you purchased the books from a big store?

Do you have a Barnes and Noble close to you?

They're open here, just have to wear a mask when inside.

Really? I live in NYC too. The ones I went to in Tribeca and on 5th Ave are open. Couldn't use the bathroom, though, in the 5th Ave one which was mega annoying.

Yeah, I know what you talk about even though, that's why I tend to use the bathroom at Macy's or the mall.. That's it..
