torn, smells like a used book store, new when i got it but now stained with makeup and water. my favorite book, a cheap copy from my friend’s mom. or a library book – a different copy than the first time i read it, doesn’t smell like cigarettes. a great book.

"It's not so much the fact that he's ugly...it's that his back is made of paper."

The ugly man in question grumbled at that. His creator, however, was obviously not pleased.

"I...I...I...just ran out of metal, is all! He's still perfectly capable."

"He's not capable, he's a goddamn paperback!"

Paperback what? Novel? They’re cheaper than . . . what would you call them? Non-paperbacks? Oh right, hardcovers. Never saw the point in hardcovers. Just make paperbacks. They’re cheaper, lighter, and make no difference to the writing. SCREW HARDCOVERS! Seriously. They suck. A lot.

I pulled the old paperback book out of my backpack. It was worn, with creases ad rips and the occasional stain. Here in the woods,though, as I sat alone, it was the most beautiful thing ever

She spoke in tongues of a paperback romance novels, words brimming with poetic meaning. She spoke them with conviction, but wondered what they meant. She knew the definitions of these words, but not what they were, how they felt in reality. It’s a shame no one ever told her not to pour her hopes into these places of fictionalized perfection, even as she spoke without certainty, her hope lay in the bindings of the pages she turned daily.

Crumbling beauties of torn paper and acid stains. Of neon colors, of 80s fonts, of cheesy Western scenes. Of make-you-blush-till-you-laugh erotic titles. Oh the compact, light, and inexpensive delicious paperback, devoured by the lonely everywhere. Your days are numbered.

I’m bringing paperback…I just was at the library today for the first time in a while. I actually checked out a book that’s hardcover. Anyway, the librarian was talking about how the library is mroe busy than ever but with all of the budget cuts happening the hours will probably be shortening. I don’t think people quite realize or appreciate what good you can do with and at the library.
