Spoiler free! I got this in on Saturday! Gotta say while I prefer last month's box. This month's Owl Crate was still really good! #owlcrate #books #reading #bookbox #book

This broke my heart. She treated the Japanese boy that fell in love with her so shabbily, it makes me want to slap her in the face. I can only hope karma did its job.

I'm usually quite happy with my used book purchases from Amazon, not so much with this one. I'd call this one "used-acceptable" not "used-good." The pages are yellowed as well. It's out of print otherwise I would have bought a new copy. #bookproblems

Gleefulreader Ooh - I would be pretty upset if that is how it arrived and I wasn't expecting it that way. 8y
8little_paws Agreed, that's not used good 8y
quirkyreader Looks like it has some water damage as well. 8y

MemoirsForMe I'd suggest calling Amazon and letting them know. I did when I was unhappy about a used DVD, and they gave me a refund. Amazon is really good about making sure their customers are happy. 8y
Lacythebookworm @Gleefulreader @8little_paws Glad it's not just me! 8y
Lacythebookworm @quirkyreader Yes, it does 😒 8y
Lacythebookworm @UwannaPublishme Good thinking! I'll do that. 8y
CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian I love Amelie Nothomb! Too bad about the condition of the book. :( 8y
Lacythebookworm @CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian This is my first by her! What others do you recommend? 8y
CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian @Lacythebookworm I loved Metaphysiques Des Tubes when I read it for a French class in university but I'm not sure if there's an English translation or not. 8y
EvieBee I hate when that happens. Amazon always gives me a refund. 8y

Struck me as insensitive. English translation perhaps too faithful. Liked this line: "you leave the dinner table and you're still hungry"....... ?

New author crush. Loved the quirky writing and the armchair tour of Japan. Another #smallpressseptember pick for the win! Published by Europa Editions, one of favorite #indiepresses
