Maybe you should just leave the book at home. If you don't have it to fall back on, you might be more likely to talk to people.

Stephen King is awesome. You should read his books.
Sadly, no. This is the first book I'm reading since 2 years. Couldn't find any good books in the library anymore. Lucky that a teacher told the class about a good bookstore I've never heard before.....

Lrn 2 interlibrary transfer? And Nitro may be right, but in this situation, did you expect Wavemeister to just randomly walk up to someone and start a conversation? This way is better.

Like mentioned in the post above, I haven't read a book since 2 years, and thus this is actually the first time I read a book in public transport. And I never talked or even said anything to anyone in public before....

Not even "excuse me" or "sorry"?

Well, you do what you think is right... Personally whenever I bring a book everyone makes a huge thing out of it.

The problem isn't having good books with the libraries. The problem is finding them. They were first sorted perfectly fine, you could find the books you were looking for. But since a year they suddenly mixed the books, and now you can't find anything without taking hours at looking through every single book through the whole library. And yes, that's literally, because you even have the chance to find children books next to horror books. Yeah.... Also, I didn't knew any good bookstores in my city, since most are simply selling those OLD books or documentation books. So yeah, that's the reason I didn't went looking for books for the last few years.....

"Yes, I do read books fairly often. Maybe you should try it, dumbass"
And whats up with everyone saying they don't like books but then every single person has to see the cover and read the blurb before they leave me alone?
