This was a serious problem for me as a kid. I’d see a friend reading a book in class, and asked if I could borrow it.
I did, and often forgot to return it.
There was this one particular instance where a friend was selling some books in a garage sale, and I bought one.
Soon after, we had a fight, and she demanded I give her book back, even though I had paid for it.
My parents made me give it back just to avoid problems with her.
That hurt; I really liked that book.
Yes, I have.
Most of them were small school books in primary school. Whoops. My bad.
What about you, @Bookworms?
I had borrowed several books of Feluda ( a bengali detective) from my uncle and never returned them
Poor uncle
He’s also a Feluda-obsessed, I mean mystery genre-obsessed
Once he was like - “Lil one, you know where ‘Darjeeling Jomjomat’ is?”
-“How am I supposed to know where you kept it?!”
Then I remember - Oops-
HAHAHA. (shaking head)
No. I never forget. I only pretend to
Oh wait, there are some books that I had borrowed from my school library and I forgot to put them in my school bag to carry them to school and return them. But then I did that the next week.
Literally all of 3rd grade… I can still hear the librarian screaming in the distance
