Different yet distinctive.

An intimate scent hits your nose.

You breathe. A deep breath. You absorb it in its entirety.

A new adventure lays ahead. What will it bring?

You close your eyes.

Memories. They overwhelm you from every corner of your mind.

Stories about Japanese clans. History lessons with American presidents. Love affairs from Paris.

Remember when Takeo was forced to work for the Tribe? All he wanted to do was be with Kaede.

Amazing how Robert Moses managed to build New York.

Connecting dots. A racing brain.

Your hands gingerly caress the pages. Feel the paper.

Another deep breath.

The smell of ink. Fresh paper. Recyclable paper. Sustainability.

The smell of a new book.

Always slightly different yet utterly familiar.

Revives the loneliest moments. The formative ones. Moments where it was only you and the book.

All caught up in its magic.

Under the spell of a book.

Great title for a book. A scientific analysis of various experiences. Triggering long gone memories with the unmistakable smell of read books.

The brain is not made to forget.

Freedom.

Lost the chain of thought.

The flashback is over.

Nostalgia.

Do you go back again or move on?

Let’s see what the new book will bring.

Stay awesome and don’t fail to create!
