inside voices, please.
Ask me anything  

i don’t understand how some people can genuinely dislike reading. and what’s this nonsense about the kindles and nooks? nothing could replace the musty, familiar scent of old books, or the fresh and clean smell of new ones. it doesn’t matter if the pages are crisp and perfectly new or worn, battered, and dog-eared. to me, each book is special. each book has a distinct story to tell. this new technology can’t give you the satisfied feeling you get from turning the pages slowly as you let the words carry you to the end. it’s just not the same.
