In the past, I have never thrown a book away. I’ve always donated my books or found them homes some other way, but sometimes the books are just so horrible that the thought of someone reading them makes me cringe. But then, there is a little piece of me that starts to compare it to book banning, and then I get all guilty over thinking such a thought. Me? Throw a book away? Never.
But…
What if they are truly horrible in every way? Would you throw them away then? I was going through my shelves and came across two such books. They are horrible. I won’t even mention the names because even a negative mention would be a waste of breath.
I thought about just leaving them on a bus bench, at the park, in a bathroom stall somewhere. The compost bin was also an option. What do you do with books like these?
