Hey /lit/, I recently visited a relative and brought a few books with me. After returning, I noticed that they have a very odd smell to them, like vinegar. His apartment was pretty humid, and had perhaps evidence of mold on the wall, making me think it might be moldy, but I'm not sure. The worst part is, the smell has spread to another one of my books, and I can't see evidence of any mold were in not for the overpowering smell.
How do I recover my books, /lit/? I don't want to throw them out because of this, has anything like this happened to anons before? Is this mold or something else? It's difficult to describe the smell outside of being vinegar-y, I haven't smelled something like this before
pic unrelated, thanks in advance

Do you know those scent wax cubes at Walmart? (The small ones not the large ones) Just rub your fingers on one of the honeysuckle scented ones just enough to have a thin almost invisible layer of it on your finger (Do not use too much or it will make the pages stick together) and slide your waxing finger on every inch of every side of every page of every book you own. (Rewaxing your finger after ever half page or so) It is the only way to scent and protect your books for good.

I personally love old book smells. Not the mouldy kind, but if you store them in dry wooden cabinets they age like wine
