i like books

actually i love books.. the tactile experience is important to me.. the touch, the feel, the smell, the act of opening & then closing the final chapter.. this has nothing to do with being ‘old school’ or ‘vintage’, or revolting against technology, but everything to do with liking books.. I’m not the kind of person that churns through a couple of novels a week – (Alyda read the first 6 Harry Potter books in 9 days).. i’m actually quite a slow reader, but i remember things that i read.. i mostly read non-fiction, & am a total sucker (obv.) for books with lots of images in them.. no internal dialogue, just quiet.. i’ll just stare at them.. examining the pages for hours.. hours of bliss.

 

this little animation brings a smile to face every time  :)
