This! My English teacher in my first year required us to buy a specific book that she wrote from a specific book store for $250. You had to bring it and the receipt in proving you bought it and aren't just sharing with someone else.
We then opened the table of contents to "go over" the book and never touched it again.
She then said "you should probably leave those here so you don't forget them". Never fucking touched it again.
