I love new books, with their nice, crisp feel and fresh smwll. I don't like crumbling, dirty pages filled with book lice.

I don't like it when they're crumbling, dirty, or filled with book lice, but there are quite a few old books that aren't. I like the old hardcover ones with thick yellow pages, normal print, illustrations, and I like their smell.
I don't like the new editions because they are almost always tiny pocket books, with really thin pages, and unreadably small text. Of course, not all new books are like that, but quite a few of them are, and those are the ones I don't like. (I'm being repetitive, if that's how you spell it.)
