Overdue books are a plague upon mankind.
It s the reader s responsibility to choose those books with short words in them. Short words serve the God-given purpose of being able to be read more quickly than long words, and the reader who has mastered short words can usually get a book back to the library with next to no effort. Of course, some books have short words in them but are tricky and can foul you up because the books have too many short words. A book with lots of words is a long book. These are books best obtained from the local bookstore, where the obligation to return them is less onerous.
