What kind of person puts a recipe book on a bookshelf in the first place. Or a coffee table book? Can you imagine asking a friend for book recommendations and they suggest a cookbook? What about an interior design look book?

I’m not saying a friend should never suggest these kinds of books, but if I asked a friend to “fill my bookshelf” and they suggested those I would be confused. Also, steal like an artist being present is the ultimate irony.
