Do we have any specific place for reading? Probably not. To start reading at the table and ending up in bed- a sort of habit. Librocubicularist, the word defines an individual who has the habit of reading in bed. Originated from the combination of two Latin words “liber” and “cubiculum”, which means “book” and “bedroom” respectively. There is no harm to it, and that’s normal to read in beds.
Apart from the habit of reading books, book nerds also enjoy the smell of books, divine to them. Bibliosmia, the smell of a book caused by the chemical breakdown of compounds in the paper that grows stronger the older it gets and believed to smell better. Every book has its own signature smell, reflecting its ingenuity, and originality.
