Yeah, I always take a book with me when I take a bath, so my books are
constantly getting that thick, wet look. And I eat and read. Yuck! I have
books with all kinds of food tucked away in the pages. I'm also good at
ripping pages, falling asleep and slobbering on them, etc. Lawd, I'd be
embarrassed to return a book to the library looking the way some of mine
do...I'm ashamed to even loan them out to friends!
