Fact: People borrow things from other people. Cool. As it should be.
Fact: Many people read in the bathroom. (I have a theory that Blender and Maxim get 75% of their circulation based in this fact, but I digress...)
Unspoken rule: You can't borrow someone's book and then read it in the bathroom! That's just unconscionable. I don't care if it's the length of War and Peace and seems like its sole purpose is to be read in a bathroom.
Furthermore...
how about you don't leave it in your bathroom where the person might see it when they come over?
...Especially if the book is one of their favorite books and they told you this.
...And if that person had to buy the book overseas because it's not published in the States, a fact which they made known to you.
And for God's sake, can you not leave it propped next to the matches?!
Thanks,
Concerned Book-Loaner

Someone told me she doesn't get books from the library because she's afraid people take it to the bathroom. I couldn't borrow books for almost three months.
let it be known that i will do any number of things in the bathroom -but reading is not one of them.
