You’ve just dropped your favorite, out-of-print book into a bathtub, ruining it completely … What do you do now?

Don’t forget to leave a link to your actual response (so people don’t have to go searching for it) in the comments—or if you prefer, leave your answers in the comments themselves!

  1. I check on Amazon for a used copy. :) If it’s not too expensive, I will try to replace it.

    cry. then check online for a replacement copy.

  3. Ooh, yeah. Forgot the crying part. My copy of “The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis” has sentimental value…I received it as a gift from my high school librarian during the last week of school some years ago!

    there’s mine. LOL…I didn’t even think of replacement. Then again, I guess I get too attached to my books.

  15. I cry, have a heart attack, die a little and search for another copy.

    Good question! Has me just freaking out a little from the thought of it.

  20. Has not happened to me yet. But I imagine I would cry for a moment. Then I would set it out to dry as best I could while calling used stores and hunting for it on line.
