i went on a date once with an engineer from google. after a perfunctory coffee the guy took me back to his dorm room. we talked about webcomics for a while, he told me to read homestuck, i told him i would. then he pulled a book down from the shelf and handed it to me. it was a cheaply printed a4-size book with two poorly-drawn animes kissing on the cover. "i gave this to my ex for her eighteenth," he said. i opened it. it was 200 pages of self-published harry potter tentacle porn. "it's a satire," he said. not knowing how to respond, i leafed through it and made soft chuckling noises. he took the book back from me, sat down on his bed and for the next 20 minutes he read aloud to me long passages about glistening curves and coils sliding into warm and lubricated secret crevices, looking up every few seconds to see if i was delighted. obviously i looked delighted because he kept going. not long after that i told him i had an assignment due tomorrow and left, he tried to kiss me as i went but i managed to turn it into a deft half-hug and he didn't get a second date but he did return my copy of one hundred years of solitude (he said he always brings a book to trade with "new friends", his was surprisingly a george saunders collection that i should have read but couldn't bring myself to open and later mailed back to him) with mysterious extensive water damage

that was actually my second copy of one hundred years of solitude to suffer extensive water damage, the first was destroyed when the hot water system exploded and flooded my one-room apartment

doorstoppers will always be popular though because they make you feel smart when you finish them
