The Smell of the Stacks...



Yeah.
I'm a little nutty.
But I love the smell of the library...
the stacks of sometimes musty smelling books
How can they smell that way even when they are new?
and I really love the smell of Barnes and Noble
who can resist the smell of paper and coffee with a hint of chocolate in the air
and cover ART
I could look at book jackets for days
Don't forget
The Launch
sounds so fancy doesn't it?
is April 1st
I will have a giveaway!!
FOR ONE ENTRY: LEAVE A COMMENT
FOR TWO ENTRIES: DO THE ABOVE AND
BLOG ABOUT THE MY GIVEAWAY, LAUNCH AND LINK ME BACK WITH ANOTHER COMMENT

APRIL 1st the winner of
the SIGNED COPY OF THE BOOK I'm REVIEWING

Amy
