Part of My Collection

This is part of my book collection.

I love their textile feeling and smell. I know that's a weird thing, but they're beautiful.

Yes! I thought I remembered that about you! My bookshelves are quite similar! ("A room without books is like a body without a soul" __Cicero)

Not weird,the smell, feel and look of a book is part of the reading experience.

@Weezilou how true. And the author of 'The Name of the Rose' believed books are medicinal. The more you have the more likely you'd find the right medicine for what you need.
@boxplayer wonderful! I thought it may be a strange thing to admit.

Not weird. Great photograph of the books. On ikea Billy shelves??

[Lynda Parker]

@johnfalconer yes Billy shelves. Attached to the wall with screws.

@johnfalconer @mozette @boxplayer How funny that we all know *and love* those Ikea Billy shelves! From where I sit I'm looking at 3 in different corners making me believe I'm better organized!!!

@boxplayer this is a part of my Pinterest rabbit hole, but filed well enough, it was right at hand to share!

I too love books and have very similar shelves ( though not ikea billy shelves). It’s not weird at all Lynda.
