BW3: 52 Books Bingo - Something Old

Old books smell of dust and the literary smoke of history, 

of writer soul and the ink of eternity. ~Terri Guillemets

I have something old on my mind, but what may be old to me, may be different for you, depending on your age. It's hilarious when I read of young characters who think their parents or friends as ancient in a story and they are in their fifties and sixties

One of our 52 Books Bingo categories is Something Old and there are a variety of ways to go with this. If you look at synonyms and words related to old, you will find - aged, ancient, vintage, old fashioned, traditional, antique, ramshackled, enduring, maternal or paternal, lasting, gothic or dusty to name a few.

So your mission is to read a book with something old which could be, but are not limited too:

• Takes place prior to or is written prior to the 10th century. 
• Takes place in the olden days (a period of time you feel some affection for).
• Takes place in the Old West. 
• Takes place in Old Hollywood.
• Takes place in the old future.
• In which the character is an old fogie or old maid.
• In which the character is searching for something old.
• In which a character has old fashioned ideas.
• A book with a word that rhymes with old in the title.
• A book with old in the title 
• A book with something old on the cover 
• A book published by Knopf Doubleday Vintage Books or Penguin's Vintage, Poetry, Classics or collections
• Spell out old by reading three books that have a word on the cover that starts with O,L,D.
• A dusty, antique, or vintage book which has been on your shelves for quite a while.
• Pick a synonym and read a book with that word in the title.

Have fun, be creative, follow rabbit trails and see where they lead you.
