10/1/07 22:35People who razor pages out of library books go to the Special Hell.
I've got to wonder, though-- accident? Anyone who takes an 800-page book out of the library ought to know how to treat a book, and it's a brand-new book with no other damage. That I see. On purpose, an act of censorship? There's so much juicy stuff in the (Young Adult, incidentally) book that (a) who would razor out only page 385/386 and no other? and (b) what could be so much worse about that page? Amazon doesn't even have the Search The Book thing, so I'm going to have to go all the way in to Borders to try to figure this out, because I am insatiably curious.
