Libraphilia.

The love of libraries. Its one of those things you either have or you dont, and I most definately do. I love books, both for their meaning and the physicality (you know that smell? the musty, secretive, warm smell) and I love quiet, big warm spaces, so libraries are kindof my Mecca. Whilst my love for the Sydney Jones is temperamental, I feel like it would be impossible not to read in one of these babies...

  2. The first and the last one are pretty amazing. If only Sydney Jones resembled the first one.
