New book arrival! (Plus bonus cat paw.) It‘s a tad beat up from its time in storage, and smells somewhat of mothballs, which is a first for me ordering a book with Amazon Prime and Amazon fulfillment (IIRC) ... but it was inexpensive, so I guess that was the trade-off? 😑
Still, it‘s not like it‘s the only somewhat battered new-to-me book to join my collection. Some books have personality before you read the first page ... 😁
TheAromaofBooks Mothballs. Fascinating. I haven't had that one yet! 5y
Sunraven @TheAromaofBooks Right? I suppose that maybe since it‘s a book self-published through a UK company and not through Amazon, maybe the author had it in storage with mothballs before they shipped it to the Amazon fulfillment center...? 5y
