Question

Which revision of this section of dialogue best shows the narrator’s feelings? When I open the cover, the smell of fresh paper wafts up to greet me and the crisp, open page fills me with an exquisite sense of possibility. When I first open the notebook, I take care to crease the cover gently so that it’s nice and flexible, and then I can enjoy writing without fussing. I’m happy about the notebook because now I can get started on writing down the song that’s been floundering in my head all week. I’m glad to have a new notebook because I’m hoping it will provide inspiration to start working on that short story that’s due in English soon.
