Being an old lady, I am prone to bouts of missing things from my youth. Today I miss writing in the margins of paperbacks I borrow/loan to friends so when they read the book later they get my silly running commentary along with the book. I think that is basically what book clubs are though? That is a thing old ladies do, right?
@Gogogadgetpants thing is I'm like 26
and we did this
@Elizafox Eh, really I'm 32. I guess that is still "young" but I feel old. I really do.
I'm glad you were also in book club. I feel as though I was in good company!
@Gogogadgetpants I'm completely unfazed to learn that I'm an old lady. Kind of half-suspected it the whole time.
@Gogogadgetpants I mean, you can still do that, if you have people to lend them to, or just to make notes to your future self
@DialMforMara I do leave notes in my own books, but the only pal I trade books with these days prefers to keep books mint and would be offended by the scribbles. They're exclusively for me!
@Gogogadgetpants what's a book, grandma?
@tcql My sweet child, they are for boiling and eating when times are tough!
@Gogogadgetpants how old we talking
