Book vandals, book banners, watch out.

Also, I always checked out the new HPs the day they came out from my library. If some person decide to burn her copy, again, I would not be pleased (luckily, I can just summon the devil with my copy of the first HP. Do not anger the HP readers.)

True, they didn't use little jesus-stickers, they used a pen instead. The result is the same though, you can throw the book away. Of course, after two or three times, we started checking their books before and after they took them home, they stopped after they got fined somewhere around 400 euro. Oh, and then there's the insane woman who would be the first to reserve the new Harry Potter, and burned it. Yes, really.
