I'm an abolitionist but I also absolutely have a Book Jail:

The bottom corner of my bookshelf where I put the books that have annoyed me or are by authors who annoy me.

Stacked page out so I don't have to see the covers.

Ooh I like the pages out idea!

If I truly hate a book, I refuse to sell it to a used bookstore and risk someone else being subjected to it.

What gets them out of jail - and if nothing, why not just banish them to an oubliette? 😹

So far, book jail has been a life sentence. It's very hard to un-annoy me and the books refuse to participate in any restorative justice process.

But then why don’t you get rid of them? 😆

BECAUSE THEY ARE BOOKS

I so feel your logic on this one.

Thank you for making me laugh, truly. I’m so glad you’re on here 😹 (I’ve followed you on IG for years but I miss this format of social media since Twitter became a Xitter).
