I found an old stamp at the thrift store today that allows for up to six lines of personlized text and I figured it might be a fun way to mark the books in my collection. I thrift most of my books and love finding writing or stamps in them, especially if it makes me laugh, so why not add some of my own?

So I turn to reddit for some inspiration. If you could stamp any text into your books, what funny/parctical/absurd/wicked text would you choose?

    Ooh what about a mini review after you read it?

    Or I would do a weird nonsensical inscription:

    “To Baby Bruce on the eve of his first communion Love Grandma” in The Exorcist

    “Congrats on your wedding to Edward! I hope this book will help you in your newly married life” in Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier

    “To the new parents! Enjoy that baby stage while it lasts!” In We Need to Talk About Kevin

      I will for sure write some of these in books I am about to donate to the thrift shop!
