They Don’t Go Outside the House Without
a Book
A book nerd always has with them a book wherever they go. This is not necessarily
a physical copy, some bring with them electronic format or even audiobook. Book
nerds always make sure every vacation bag is accompanied by a book. They feel incomplete
without it.
They Hate People Destroying Their Books
Book nerds treat books as pets.
They see books as living organisms deserving of care and compassion. Every book
nerd hates to see books whose covers are bent or folded, or pages torn and ripped.
It hurts them to see their books not in a perfect condition.
They Don’t Like Other Borrowing
Their Books
Book nerds hate to hear people
asking them to borrow their books. Yes, book nerds are selfish when it comes to
books. They don’t want to be apart from them. They feel so anxious every time they
let someone borrow their books. Their minds are always thinking on the possible
bad things that might happen to the books their friends borrowed from them.
Purchased Books Should Be
Perfect
Book nerds spend time in bookstores
in a minimum average of one hour every visit. They just find it very satisfying
to be surrounded by shelves and books that are new and in perfect condition. They
also spent time to arrange books on the shelves in the store. It satisfies them
to see these books organized. Every time they purchase books, these should be
in a perfect condition. They will never buy books that have stickers on the
cover, have folds and scratches and whose paper edges are already oxidized. The
books they are about to purchase should be the newest as possible. Also, some book nerds dreamt to be working in
bookstores.
They Talk About Books All the
Time
Some may find book nerds annoying already. Most of the time, they only
talk about books whether they are in the office, school, mall and even on
social medias. Book nerds always want to share their good reads. They want to influence
people around them to read the latest books that they love. It really satisfies
them to see their friends read their book recommendations.
They Judge People According to
the Books They Read
Yes, they don’t usually admit this, but book nerds secretly judge the
people around them based on the books they own or read. They might base their
decision on who to choose as a friend based on the books they collect or like
to talk about. Also, it is a deal breaker for them if their date doesn’t read
books. One must read books for them to like and love you.
They Do Judge the Book By its
Cover
The main reason for book nerds to judge book by its cover it because
they want these books to look good on their shelves. They judge the book by its
cover because for them it is inevitable. Book covers are one of the best things
that might happen to a book. A bad book cover greatly influences the readers
mood or anticipation to read the book.
They Treat Books as Lovers
They secretly say to their books that, “Don’t worry, I will keep you
safe”. Book nerds treat books as a living person. They make sure their books
smell good and are not stained. They usually caught their selves sniffing books
especially if they are new. Book nerds don’t practice monogamy when it comes to
their romantic relationships with their books. Love to books should not be
limited, that is they always believe.
