FLASHLIGHT READERS discussion

I saw this So.... game on of the you tube channel found it amazing. So decided to start this question games in our book club!!!

The worst damage I've done to a book?? Ehhh, probably a lot, because when I was little, I tend to use crayons to scribble over the characters in picture books that I don't like.
For example, I drew tears and snot dribbling down every single character's face in my Charlie and Lola book when I was four... 😂

Charlie and Lola!! I have seen it when I was small. It used to come on
Cbeebies. It was soo cute!

Yeah 😊 !! It was one of my favourite cartoons, I've seen every one of them a million times 😍!

I’ve stuck stickers ALL over a book when I was little. The pages and the cover.

I once spilt water over the cover of a book

I got a nose bleed while I was reading once... It was so depressing because the book was a signed copy

i bleed all over watership down and we now can't read it cause most o it is glued together with blood

Oh, poor you!! Getting a nosebleed AND bleeding on your book... What bad luck ☹️

yup. my luck don't like me. plus it got all over the floor and blood ain't easy to clean

true that

Well I got a couple drops of water on the pages of a few books, but nothing too major. But my dog did eat one of my mother's library books....

Spilled ketchup on it.Oops.
It was a murder mystery so looked disturbingly like blood‍.

Someone stole my books :)

I once took my copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows into the shower with me (I was just getting to the exciting bit where Ron and Harry destroy the Locket so I couldn't put it down!) and - you guessed it - it got a shower too.
Luckily only a few pages where damaged!! 😱😱

hhaaha. sorry that just funny

It's OK, I find it funny too 😂!

My books get beat up honestly. But the worst is probably to my favorite book and it’s pretty ripped and I accidentally left it out in the rain... twice.

Uh, well onetime I burned a book. It was this old one called The Race.. I don't even remember the author and I hated it so much because it glorified horse racing when really it is a cruel and un-humane sport that I use to like but then looked into and now I don't. Other than that I generally try to be nice to my books...

I don't blame you! I CAN'T stand animal cruelty!

There was a time when I was an uncultured heathen and would fold the corner of books if I didn't have a bookmark.
This happened maybe twice or thrice before I learned the error of my ways.
*shudders*
Dark times, I tell you. DARK TIMES!!

*faints*

I'm crying, that's so funny XD

I once saved my dirty thanksgiving plate for THREE MONTHS, and kept a bag of moldy peach pits in my dresser drawer so you're not alone ;)

I'll talk about it with the mods! I think that could be fun!

Well, I haven't much liked damaging a book since early childhood. But one of my memories say that when someone accidentally scribbled or marked something on my books, I (a child of course, won't do it ever again!!) applied a load of ointments so that it may go away. And then the book smelled horribly.

I occasionally used to fold the top page of a book as a bookmark...
