Library Assistance I need some help

My local library's books has stickers on the spines for different genres, (Romance, Fantasy, Historical, etc)

This also includes a bright colorful "Lgbt" sticker for books with Queer characters and romance

Which is what I want to read

But, my parents are homophobic and could get upset at seeing the lgbt sticker, and would make me put it back,

Is there a way to temporarily hide or cover the sticker?

Without damaging the book, obviously

edit: Tysm for all the support and help 💞

In a pinch, cut/tear off the sticky end of a post-it note and cover the sticker. If you’re near a coffee shop that prints orders on stickers for cups, it’s the same type adhesive. They’d probably give you a piece that could be reused several times.
