@wallhackio No Hog Book ![]()
@lapis TRAGIC
@lapis I have to admit now that I didn't get that one through the local library system. Instead, there are little boxes set up around the neighborhood labeled "take a book, leave a book" and I found the hog book there
But included it in the image because I thought it would be funny
@wallhackio You're a lucky bastard because with the exception of one copy most of these are going for like 30-40 bucks used
@wallhackio https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/c72f465b-4612-4a17-a642-470aec00fe0e this was the edition of The Bloody Chamber my librarian put on hold btw
@lapis lol
@lapis honestly could have been much more risque
@wallhackio Oh yeah exactly but it's like, imagine you're like 10 years younger, people haven't normalized reading romance publicly* in public (on busses) yet, and you're like "my life is over if I read this book publicly"
I mean I just read it at home. that was the easiest solution
@wallhackio okay I need to see if MY library has this (and hopefully doesn't have a horny cover like that time I checked out The Bloody Chamber and got a cover of someone fucking a wolf-man that I was too embarrassed to read in public
