Looking at new books, sniffing them, the peace, the quietness in the book store, people focused in finding books or reading the description and many many more. I love every minute feature of the book stores.

Oh! I could spend hours at a bookstore just leafing through books. Usually, my family has to drag me away from any bookstore that we come across in our outings.

I love to see price tags of each book when I am in a bookstore. I love seeing stacks of books. I love to touch books.

Whether it is a book store or a library the environment is so calming. You are surrounded by books and it is like an amazing feeling. Every time you look around you are faced with new possibilities. Honestly it is like an escape.

I love the entire atmosphere. Usually lots of dark wood, coffee scents in the background, comfy chairs to read, and thousands of books to get lost in. Instant comfort!

The smell of paper and ink is my favorite! Bookstores also just generally feel peaceful.

I love everything about bookstores. First is the serenity and the ability to come across lots of books to read. I go to the bookstore at least twice every week to read and find out new book collections.

Book stores are great avenues for me to discover new books and also read them too. I love the sight of seeing so many different books. Most times, I usually have the desire to just take all the books if it were possible.lol

I love the smell of books when I'm in the bookstore. It's like the smell of someone or something I love. I can't explain it.
