Part of me wanted to keep these gems in the book for its next reader...

Not long ago, I checked out Don DeLillo's "White Noise" from my school's library and opened it to find both a Trojan Magnum wrapper and gum wrapper. I laughed out loud and then felt like I should wash my hands (in that order). I also think it is hilarious that the last sentence reads "...frightened children appeared at our door for their Halloween treats"... It seems a bit ironic for some reason, as if I opened the book to these "treats." Thanks to the library for keeping me entertained in more ways than one!

This is by far my favorite post. Gum and a magnum. What a sexy night at the library.
