  16. These look beautiful. I wrote a short story in their honour.

    Mr Jones opened the book and gasped. Inside, he found the ticket. The ticket to the concert. The concert where he met her. The lady who changed his life - not by coincidence, but because it was always meant to be. He smiled, his wrinkled face lit dimly by the moon. He put the book in the box - someone else should read this. But he kept the ticket. The ticket he had forgotten - a forgotten bookmark now found.

  29. These books remind me of my grandparents' collection of children's books and early 20th century art nouveau-illustrated books.

    Meanwhile, I find much good in the out-of-print world:
