AUTUMN

Sitting here thinking of that first chilly day of fall. Waking up and being able to put on a cozy oversized sweater and sweats. Starting the morning with pumpkin coffee and apple cider donuts. Opening the windows and filling the house with a mixture of fresh autumn air and pumpkin spice candles.

books?? amazing. paperbacks?? soft, cozy, may fit in your pocket, cheap so you don’t feel bad for taking notes in them. hardcovers??? beautiful, pristine, ground you into the world they hold by making you grip them tighter, the stars of every bookshelf. ebooks?? convenient, cheap, always with you, a vast library that you can hold in your palm. new books?? crisp, the smell of wood, ideas waiting to imprint themselves upon the world. old books?? objects transcending history, sweet smelling, enriched by the hands that stroked their pages. books.
