Hey /lit/, want to talk about books?

I'm with this guy, it just influences my choice of edition.

Even though I own 2 different editions of A Clockwork Orange and am by tempted by a third.

What?

I bought and read Moby dick when i was 10

When Borders went out of business in Scotland it was pretty much ~£1 a book.

Wait it out and get bargains on whatever is left.

Literature is one of my only interests I just don't know how to express my feelings (in general or in relation to a novel)

In the bookshop today the handsome cashier started speaking to me again and I got flustered and embarrassed and think I started blushing.

How do you handle social interaction?
What do I say to someone with an interest in literature?

I dunno I guess I was a bit like that but I didn't really talk to anyone about literature so I was nothing like that (because I didn't talk to anyone)
