O Amazon!

I love books.

I love the feel of the book store and even the library (albeit it does feel dustier in a library, even when it’s clean and pristine).

I love the spine-crackling sounds of a brand new book being opened and the wonderful smell of it’s freshly inked pages.

I love the anticipation of finding something to sink my thirsty teeth into.

I love reading
about and looking at the author’s photo (and imagining holding my own published book in my hands).

I love to be teleported
into other worlds; whether they are completely imagined or an inner world being seeded and soon-realized.

I especially love it when I read a book and feel changed. The secret keys, doorways and passages that written words on paper reveal to me.

Here are few that have done just that.
