Obscure to all except those well-versed in Yuuzhan Vong lore.

I actually mastered a style of reading paperbacks without bending the spine because I think bent spines look ugly. I read paperbacks by sort of peeling back only the page I am currently looking at.

I do this too. I will also look through an entire stack of a certain book at the store to find the ones in best condition and examine them side by side so I get the perfect one.

I also buy books on ebay a lot since I prefer having the original hardcover copy of a book rather than a paperback. Unlike Amazon they'll usually have photos. gently caress you sellers who list a book as having "no flaws" or in "mint" condition when the photos clearly show the dust jacket is caved in on the spine! :argh:

I have serious issues.
