When I sit down with my friends and show them the book, my best friend Kylene taps my shoulder and tells me: "You noticed this book is f*ck'up right?"
And it certainly was! I looked it over, and If I wanted to buy it without knowing of its damages, now I wanted to buy it even more! I mean, it was unique on its f*ck'up way!
I took some pictures, so you guys could have some evidence.
If you see there are two pages that just continue, one right after the other. Also there are like half pages all around! And the way you put it back together, so you can actually close it, it's like doing a puzzle. And I love it. Because it's weird, unique, one of the kind.
In the end my friend bought it for me at 30% off. So the book was like 6 dollars.
I have a new motto now, which states,
'Even mutant books need to be loved.'
Wow...that is F'd up hehe. I've seen stuff like this in books before but with like ONE page lol Not a LOT! Nice find. Did you buy it? Did they give you a discount? lol
ReplyDeleteHaha that's awesome!

Why would your friend buy you a messed up book when he/she could have bought you a nice copy of the book?
ReplyDelete* Unless you can fix it which looks impossible!
Lol. That is pretty messed up Taschima. lol.

ReplyDeleteShe bought it cause I wanted it. It's not everyday you get to find a bad copy. Yes, I know, I'm weird lol
Even mutant books need to be loved. LOL!
ReplyDeleteIt's true, you really do have a one of a kind book now!
Amber
Wow, that's pretty interesting. xD
ReplyDeleteLol I remember you telling me about this! Yeah... that IS pretty messed up. Interesting though xD
ReplyDeleteit's f'd up in a unique way, thats cool. i support ur motto. lol
ReplyDelete'Even mutant books need to be loved.'
ReplyDeleteLMAO! AMEN to that!!
LOL! XD Great motto.
ReplyDeleteI have a mutant copy of Anne of Green Gables that I thought was kinda cool, but it doesn't hold a candle to your puzzle book!
wow that's crazy!
ReplyDeleteLOL! But only 30% off? Is it still readable?
ReplyDeleteTHATS AWESOME! BTW i love your motto. It kind of makes me think of X-Men but now its more like B-NERD. bad joke I know :P
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you got the book - i would have too. I would have felt sorry for it and felt that it need some love! Was the book good after solving the mystery of how to read it?
Hahaha Haven't read it, but since you guys since to be very interested in this mystery (not genre, but the book itself) I guess this is going to be my next read.
ReplyDeleteAnd Tricia, yeah only 30, which I think it has too little, but oh well, and I don't know, I guess I'll find out won't I?
WOW... that happened to an ARC of Eyes Like Stars I got and it was so trippy, but to see that happen to a mass copy?.... o.o oh mys!
ReplyDeleteOooh. That's really interesting. o_o Wow. i've never found a book like that. Hm.
ReplyDeleteShayla go into the sewers, dark alleys, darkest corners of borders, and there you'll find your mutant book.
ReplyDeleteCute story.
ReplyDeleteSexy cover.
Can't wait for your review.
Ah, mutants. They are interesting even if they're hard to "read." Glad you took it to a good home.
ReplyDeleteI love the cover and title is awesome!
ReplyDeletewow lol that is pretty effed up ;P hey at least you got a discount, but I must agree with the other people that pshhh 30%. Should've made it 50% or so
ReplyDelete@Yan I agree! I thought they would, but they wouldn't budge >.>
ReplyDeleteThat is f'ed up but you got a discount.
ReplyDeleteHahahaha that is soo weird! I've never seen anything like it.
ReplyDelete30%?? How are you supposed to read it...?
ReplyDeleteThe weirdest one I've come across is this one book that was missing like 20 pages, and it was nearly brand new. They just weren't there.
Also, on a sidenote, your music came on while I was reading this and nearly gave me a heart attack. The Bad Girls Don't Die book trailer made me jumpy. :P
Wow. It's unique but it would drive me crazy to read it like that!? I like my books in great condition.
ReplyDeleteMy ARC of Intertwined as pages falling out and I'm sooo upset! What if I lose a page?!? Extra pages wouldn't be so bad but LOST pages?! NO!
I found a messed up book at the library one time it had like pages 1-130 and then it went back to 45-130 and then started over at like 300 so like half the book was gone!
