Do Not Want is a collection of statements on books and their shortcomings. These were sourced from various online reviews, alphabetised, and presented in this handmade stab-bound book.

The cover and endpapers of Do Not Want feature the title of this book in hanzi: 不要. This is a way of saying ‘no’ in Chinese, in the sense typically given by translation software as ‘do not want’.
