Do you ever wish to have the most expensive books in the world in your bookshelf?
Ever thought about how Books do feel like when on a Sunday morning or at night, you sit there, introspecting, holding that bundle of sober creamy sheets in your hands?
A lot of thoughts, rhetorical questions, poems, and quotes, might have crossed your head.
The query that crossed our heads though was,

And the answer was found after thorough research, which is, as follows:
