Old books for sale in an open-air book market, Paris, France
Today is simply a collection of images made at an open-air book market on Boulevard Saint Germain in Paris. There were all manner of books, from very old to very new; fiction and non-fiction; historical classics and modern thrillers. But there was one thing that stood out above all… the smell. The smell of old, worn books. Books that have been pre-loved and cherished. Pages that have been thumbed and flipped. Ah yes, there’s nothing quite like the smell and feel of old books!

Old books and old book stores are one of my favorite things in Paris!
They’re great aren’t they Lucia?! I loved wandering around Shakespeare & Company.
