The opening & last page of book have been written/scribbled in, one of the title pages is a little ripped. The spine isn’t perfect, but not falling apart either. It also looks as though someone was bored and went over the outside pages as a whole with pencil while they held the book closed. Something you only notice when they book is closed. However, NONE of the actual pages you will be reading are damaged at all, they are all in pristine condition. There are also tiny stickers on the back of the book that can be easily removed, I think they add character. I repeat, the pages are all immaculate, once you are past page 4 you would think the book was new.
