Never did she find anything so difficult as to keep herself from losing her temper when she was suddenly disturbed while absorbed in a book. People who are fond of books know the feeling of irritation which sweeps over them at such a moment. The temptation to be unreasonable and snappish is one not easy to manage.
‘A Little Princess,’ Frances Hodgson Burnett
Am I the only person here who smells my books?

I have a bit of a strange habit, but I love to smell my books - I hold them near my nose, flip the pages though my fingers, and inhale deeply. It gets me some weird stares when I decide to smell a book in one of the antique stores that I’m always keeping an eye out for.

Seriously.
