Books and Sundry
Young Horatio Hornblower, C.S. Forester: I love to sniff the old torn spine of this book. I sit primly on the open pages and just rest my nose on the book, getting a high from the musty, basement-y odor.
The Bastable Children, E. Nesbit: It's soft, faded linen cover is almost as tattered & smelly as YHH.
The Father Christmas Letters, J.R.R. Tolkien: I am only able to smell this rare secondhand copy during Advent, and I have to sneak to sit on it when no one is looking.

I am SO JEALOUS!
As am I!!
I can't even begin to describe the depth of my envy. Lo, the green eyed monster doth lurk in the very marrow of my bones...
I especially like the lurking predator picture at the bottom...
