Book fair sads :(

The only thing good about delhi is the book fair, and arghh I'm missing it. Some of my oldest memories are of visiting the book fair with my father and buying tons of Mir publication books, and Chinese folk stories. We'd have bags full of books and the first thing we did was write our names and dates on respective books. 

One day isn't never nearly enough to absorb its joy de vivre. There are so many bajillion stalls and each stacked full of books. Some local, some glocal some global. 

Some stalls have such many fantastical comics too.  Oh I miss it. 
It's always that slightly chilly, slightly warm weather that makes it so much more fun..shuffling from stall to stall, morning to evening, and lugging back books for an entire year.

I miss book fair. The last I remember visiting it was some 8 years back. Sigh :(
