For God's sake don't give a second of your life to those faggots, take care of your books.

Lots of people have been practically bathing in old books for a long time.
Bibliophilia.
Never heard of catching sick.

Those books on the right are like the books in Myst.
I can hear the portal soundtrack.

i hope this is bait holy fuck. you should be trying to keep your books in the best condition that you reasonably can. if you buy a lot of used books you'll find many somewhat worn ones and those are the most important to treat with care. it's not fun to read a half destroyed book, if you purposefully damage your books and you plan on re reading them, you will end up having to buy other copies
