Book Crook

Someone who makes money by stealing books from the local public library, then reselling them online, after removing the security tags and identifying marks.

The book crooks wiped out our entire collection of automotive repair manuals.

The Book Thief

Markus Zusak's masterpiece. Published in 2006. A book narrated by Death himself tells the tale of an adopted girl in Nazi Germany, the dirty little boy who loves her, her parents, and the Jewish fistfighter hiding in their house.

"The Book Thief" by Markus Zusak is my favorite book!

Book-Shaming

To shame someone about what they are reading. To make one feel guilty about the book they are reading and enjoying.

Michael tried book-shaming me for reading 50 Shades of Grey.
