Book Smell

One of my friends recently caught me smelling the book I was reading...that's right, I was SMELLING my book.

I love being able to hold a book in my hands and physically turn the pages instead of clicking a button (Sorry Kindle...) Seriously though, books have a smell that takes you to another world! A Kindle can't do that. I have never once felt like curling up with a Kindle in a blanket....it just doesn't do it for me.

If you were to look inside my back pack, I would have 3 books in with all my school notebooks. I have Pride & Prejudice, Enrique's Journey, and North & South. I also have 2 more books on hold at the library, 1 book checked out, and I am planning on going to Barnes & Noble sometime in the next few days. I have a problem, you don't need to tell me. But now that I am a tourist in my own city, my only way to check out of life for a few moments are my books. I have WORLDS at my fingertips! :) So I guess in reality, anyone who loves to read, is a tourist. They explore and mentally travel to the places they read about :)

So, go the the library, pick your world, make sure you like the smell of the pages, and travel to somewhere unknown and new :)
