I love to go to used book stores, yard sales and auctions to buy books. Inevitably, you find little personal details of the previous owners within them. Old photographs. Coins. Letters. I even found a four-leave clover in a book on superstitions.
The Guardian's Theresa Malone has a terrific column about the life of books – and how electronic devices take away the pleasures of a book's past.
Check out Every Book Tells a Story.
