Have you lent a book and never gotten it back? Did you forget to ask? Did they just love it so much you gave it away? Did you have to fight for it back? Were you the guilty party who kept the book?

So many possibilities. I have only once gotten back a book I've lent.

In highschool, when twilight came out, I was all about it. I was the nerd who took it to school and was reading it inbetween classes. A friend of mine (or so I thought (Joanna)) asked to borrow it, I said of course! I was excited to share something I loved. A couple of weeks go by and she hasnt mentioned if she was team Ed or Jacob (team Ed myself) and so I asked "did you like twilight?" She acted confused "what do you mean, I've never read it". Well okay then Jo, I was a little upset but whatever, I asked for it back since she didnt want to read it but she insisted I never lent it to her!

So like any completely emotionally stable 13yr old... I went crying to my mummy that I wanted my book back. My mummy took me to her house and talked to her mum, who made Jo give it back. Take that!!! She had even written her name in the front page, the gotdam audacity of this girl. Anyway I got my book back and she didnt speak to me anymore, win/win.

Now I only lend books that I'm happy possibly not getting back. What's your story?
