It's a good book for the price
A few pages had some writing on it with pen but that was stated on the description. The only issue I have is that if you're a smoker you should've stated that. My book reeks of cigarette smoke and me not been a smoker AT ALL, I don't appreciate the smell of cigarette in every turning page.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
