And good one, with the face down, pages open! Very low on my list of peeves, but it is in there :)TNBBC Super Modhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15153016306489908880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5304920138891211736.post-62787885934590396132015-01-22T23:15:22.061-05:002015-01-22T23:15:22.061-05:00To be fair: I'm studying Communications, and ...To be fair: I'm studying Communications, and much of that involves literature classes. They're not textbooks, but I'm still analyzing the heck out of them. That means I mark them up.<br /><br />I also put marginalia in books I own, even if they're not for school. That only happens, though, in books I'll never get rid of (which is most of my collection anyhow, lol). <br /><br />As far as my pet peeves go, the worst for me is people who bookmark by putting an open book down on the pages. With the spine up, and the book open, the spine cracks slowly and deliberately. I can almost hear the book screaming.JoeJohhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03456871074267603684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5304920138891211736.post-62180348853686729472015-01-22T13:02:51.961-05:002015-01-22T13:02:51.961-05:00I agree, the only time I can forgive writing in a ...I agree, the only time I can forgive writing in a book is a college textbook, or textbooks of any kind. Since they are actually meant for learning and studying... that makes sense to me.

Although, I always think the exception to this rule are college books. Depending on the class, I would highlight, write on them, tag them, and wait for it....dog ear! Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
