1) Not usually. I need to start carrying some so when the revolution begins I can use it to buy stuff before the whole system collapses and it becomes tissue paper.

2)Miss Havisham is rich and she‘s FN nuts! But not rich enough for me to spend the remaining minutes of my life rereading the god awful book she‘s in.

Abridged books!!! Who the fuck buys these? It‘s literary vandalism!!! People say it‘s for kids, let kids read the whole thing. Abridged books feel like someone chewed your meal for you and handed it back — it might technically be “digestible,” but the soul of it is gone. They‘re like fucking cliff notes in my opinion. Only one authors work should be abridged and thats Dickens.

TheBookHippie OMG YES!!!!!!! It‘s just censorship!!! 2w
dabbe I even say no to any abridged Dickens! 2w
BookmarkTavern And when it doesn‘t make it clear it‘s abridged! 😡 My father gifted me a copy of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea when I was younger, and neither of us realized it was abridged because it was in such tiny font on only one of the title pages! Thanks for posting! 2w
