Books
There are a lot of books in this house. When I was first here, I could hang out on the landing, but now there are bookcases there. Joe's got books all the time. Katie has books or magazines sometimes. There are piles of books in my hangout room. I decided to give books a try. Here is what I discovered:
1) Some books are fresher than others. Through careful selection you can pick or avoid musty smelling books.
2) Books with paper wrappers are more fun than books without.
3) Books with a binding greater than 3 inches aren't much harder to get off the shelf, but they are harder to get down the stairs.
4) Different books have different mouth feels. Some are like cloth, and some are more papery.
I'm sure there are more things to learn about books. For instance, they have pages, and I have not examined those yet.

The most delicious kind of books are old, irreplacable books. They're even more delicious if they belong to Joe.
