How should I ask for my books back?

[Anonymous]

My sister borrowed two of my healthy books. Doubt she has even read them maybe just went through them it bothers me that she has them because I paid for those books. I take care good care of them so now I just want them back. I saw that she had them stored in her kitchen pantry along with other books it kinda bothered me. Anyways I just want them back for peace of mind, how should I ask for them back? "Hey could you bring me the books you borrowed, I am starting to eat healthy again" how does that sound?

I mean, you have to seem to have trouble finding your voice and standing up for yourself.

Just say, 'I'm taking my books back'. Enough said. No drama necessary.

Your question to her is. " When were you planning to give me my books back?"

Yes she just stored them in her pantry like they were hers now

I've lent out books CDS and LP records and never got them back either. I. But if you want them back, ask her directly for them. Make sure she knows that they were not a gift.

Your approach sounds great and considerate. You could say something like, "Hi! I noticed you still have the healthy books I lent you. I'm planning to dive back into healthy eating and would love to have them back. Could you please bring them over when you have a chance? 😊" This approach is friendly and gives her a reason for you needing them back.

I don't see what the problem is here, just say "I want my books back" and go get them

You should ask verbally.

Ask politely
