Rachael Morrison wants to smell every book at MoMA (over 300,000!) and is chronicling each smell in her journal. A few of my favorites? Late summer rain, hugging grandma and “under the couch.”
Some people are insane awesome.

I always smell books before buying them! In fact, my boyfriend and I went to a bookstore on our first date and I explained my theory of good smell = good read. It’s pretty awesome to hear that someone is recording all these scents!
ha —- that is AWESOME, caitlin!
She may also be tempted to taste a page or two.
hahahah crazy!
Awesome! Though I guess I can’t poke fun at my girlfriend for doing this all the time now.
I do this, too. I confess. Though I am happy to hear other people do this. I used to work at a bookstore!
hahahaha! we are not alone, weird book lovers!

Smelling books it’s one of my favorite passions… The ones I love the most are the old books, specially the ones from the 60’s and 70’s…mmm…
