I sniff books

It's a lovely, woody, pulpy, glue-y smell.

I love the smell of new books and old books with the slight musty smell like I can smell the adventure in them

I had know idea so many other people like how books smell. All my friends at school think I'm weird. :)

I smelled a book at my library today that was supposed to be around 120-ish years old, I could literally smell the years in it (As odd at the sounds), like, different chunks of the book has different scents, like something was placed there as a bookmark for a long time.

My piano teacher and I would spend 5 minutes of each lesson sniffing my new books. I guess I owe my obsession to her.

When I was little, I had this collection of dinosaur books (whom I have recently found out were horribly inaccurate) that smelled like cabbage.

I took a sniff at a the library Great Gatsby book... it oddly smelled like villiana outside but on the inside it smelled like recycled elephant poop paper.( it's not as bad as it sounds) I actully smelled elephant poop paper and it smells like leaves.

Has anyone ever noticed that textbooks are generally stinky, even the new ones? They just don't smell like books.
