That... is such a surreal conversation you had with that lady. "Because it was evil"? Oh, well that totally explains it! Because books are sentient things with a concept of ethics, and it's totally natural to burn them and then talk about it casually like you're some... kind of... pyromaniac. WHAT.
I would never burn a book. Not even TWILIGHT for fuck's sake. Not even Mein Kampf or God Is Not Great or Dianetics or even the Oresteia, which is the only book I've ever considered burning. (Instead I just threw it at the wall.) Because... because... they're books for fuck's sake, they're sacred! D:
