I Don’t know why I love books.
by Akim
There’s a good feeling about getting your hands on a book, reading it and finishing it. Because of course, Reading is a way to escape the boring routines and diverge yourself once in a while to the lives of another, to diverge your mind in an authors making. To open your mind to a new world
Here are some things that you might relate to If you are a such a booklover/bookworm such as me.
1. You feel rich when you get inside a bookstore. Surrounded with books you browse through each one as if you own them all.
2. When you get your hands on a book, you feel its power rush through you like an electricity waiting to power up the imagination
3. That giddy and little excited kid feeling when you just bought a new book
4. Your idea of a break is an iced coffee, a comfy couch and a good long book
5. Your favorite shop is Power Books, Fully Booked and National Bookstore
6. You have a booklist awaiting to bought and read
7. You can spend one whole day in a bookstore just browsing on the Young adults section
8. You smell the pages of both new and antique books.
9. You write you’re favorite quotes down from the books you’ve read
10.You take care of your books like they’re little fragile babies
11. You tried atleast once finishingΒ a book in one day
12. You try to imitate the lead character in the book or try to relate yourself to him or her
13. You write a blog about the book you just read.
Oh yep, I think I relate to almost everything you just said! π
Haha. I think we book-lovers go nonsensically weird at times.
Hahaha, it’s the best kind of weird though. At least it keeps us interesting π
I agree. Weird is actually good. readers are just deep, compared to ones who settle to the dullness of reality.
I love the smell of books myself. The first thing that came to mind when I started through your list. And I do get a little excited when I walk into a book store.
Well don’t we all do π Books are just precious. We feel like little kids in candyland as we enter into a bookstore.
I can relate. I gather books around me like little friends.
awwee π thats cute. I wont be surprised if you start talking to each one of them π
Ooh, I totally relate to most of those points. I’ve been reading ebooks recently because they’re so much cheaper and my phone has a back-light so I can read in bed and fall asleep without turning off the light, but I REALLY miss real books… The smell, going in to book stores, having a brand new, un-read book… Nice post, thanks for sharing π
I agree, Books have become expensive, I myself am starting to read ebooks as well but nothing beats old paperbacks π
I couldn’t agree more with number 8. I just love smelling books! π
