We all know them, those with their noses always stuck in a book, constantly quoting books, and carrying around a book like others carry around their phones. Here are 10 things that only book lovers would understand.

1. Getting weird looks for carrying a book around wherever you go even when it's a big book.

2. When adults are surprised when you are reading instead of texting.

3. That feeling when you finished an amazing book and a sense of loss and wistfulness comes across you.

4. Re-reading your favourite book, wishing you could read it for the first time again just to experience that magic of the first read.

5. When you keep buying books although you own so many that you haven’t read yet.

6. Running out of room on your bookshelf.

7. Getting carsick trying to read, but still doing it anyway because the book is worth a little nausea.

8. Trying to read anywhere even when it's loud and people are trying to interrupt you.

9. Reading late into the night even when you know you should go to bed.

10. When snuggling down with a good book is the best thing in the world.
