How many of you steal books? I see a lot of greentext stories of people doing so on here. For you book-thieves, do you think you are justified in doing so? Where do you steal from?
bookzz.org, completely justified
physical book theft isn't even an issue, I just go to the store and read the book then leave if I want it that badly

I fucking love this one. The way you start to feel and then with the very last panel and that NO and that fucking face! Gets me every time.
Yeah I do. I bring a backpack to book stores that don't have security cameras, and when no one is around, I take whatever I wanna pick up, store it in the backpack and leave.
The last book I stole was Persuasion.
Stole half the Western Canon in my last year of high school. They hadn't bothered to offer advanced chemistry, physics or history so I had plenty of reason to be sour and plenty of spare time alone in the English dept. I mostly took ex-library books that had been removed from circulation and other forgotten soles who are never taught in school so no I don't feel especially bad.

Is this easy? Which stores do you go to? Is it not easier when they're busy?

We slow readers forever neglected and left out
Much easier to steal from libraries imho.
stealing a physical book is never justified but if you're stealing from libraries you're just straight scum

What about from schools where there is an abundance of copies?
A bookstore?

It fills me with a mixture of cringe, giddiness and mostly severe fremdschäme.

I only purchase a book if the author is still alive.

Yes, it's easy. Just local stores m8. Nah, why would it be?

slow reading is generally more enjoyable though
fast reading is really only useful if you're reading nonfiction
I stole Ada by Nabokov off a random coworkers desk when I worked at a phone bank place.
I read the first few chapters but it was too difficult so I gave up.

Too difficult? How old were you?
