    How many readers like me did pause the video to check the titles? To see whether they have read the books or not, or to count how many books/covers they could recognise? 📚
    PS: books are life, I'm so grateful for them. I'm also grateful for authors, poets, artists, singers, historians, philosophers, scientists, travellers,... anyone that's doing something beautiful and meaningful, all those people who are making a change in this world.

    This video is amazing! I'm one of those who adore the feeling of a book in my hands, as opposed to a tablet. The heft of the book, turning the pages, and most importantly the embossing or different textures on the covers and pages. Long live actual books.

    This is one of the best time lapse video that I have ever seen. Just watching the few seconds made me realize that there was so much work and effort was put to this by a group of people just to prove a point.
    Thank you for this and I hope more and more people discover the joys or reading a book.

    Gorgeous animation! There truly is nothing quite like a real book. No digital copy will ever come as close to the heart as a well loved paperback with its worn spine and well-flipped pages, that comforting book smell that seems to relax away all worries... If we're honest with ourselves though, something does have to be said for being able to fit an entire library of "dancing" literary masterpieces in the palm of your hand via ebook reader... its a book-lovers dream.

    I was doing a cleanup of my favorite video list and I clicked the delete button one too many times, accidentally getting rid of this. Turned out to be a blessing in disguise, though, because I had to come back here to re-favorite it and ended up watching the video a few times through. This video never fails to make me smile. :)

    I once had an artistic brother that passed away at a very young age. One of his projects -shortly before he got ill- was to turn his living quarters completely white. He painted almost everything and turned all his hundreds of books backwards on their shelves, so he only saw the white sides. This beautiful video reminds me of him. Thank you!
