I had to come back and tell you how much I LOVED your writing here. It was so beautiful and poetic. I know exactly what you mean. My favorite quote: "Kindles are convenient but you don’t smell the books or touch the books. They don’t sit together and talk. They don’t whisper something about your interior world to everyone who enters your home and pauses to glance at the titles."
My mom took me to the library every weekend of childhood, and I continued to do that up until I graduated HS. It made me realize that I feel most at home among books and that in a way - they're like my my most faithful and honest friends.
