I like the lighting and the composition. Nice contrasts.

pages of the book seem kind of blown out...

Nice old feel to this, but lacks lasting interest for me.

Wish I could see a version with the book in the focal plane.

I think I would have preferred to see some writing on the pages of the book, rather than the over bright light. Nicely done otherwise.
