Most Annoying Book-Related Experience

Post by Lincolnshirelass »

Being somewhat financially challenged, I generally get my books second-hand, but a few days back I actually coughed up to get one new, even though it wasn't a new title (if you follow me). Then that very afternoon I saw relevant book for 50p in a library sale! What are your most annoying experiences with regard to books?

I buy a lot of books online, but the last time I did that they came very worn and looked nothing like the picture.

Everytime I buy a book, my father will be like, have you read all those books that you bought. And when I am reading a book, he will be like what's written on the book tell me, are you even reading the book or are you just starting at it. These are the most annoying book related experience I had and I think I will be having it till I get married.
