If you're only using one hand, you have to turn the pages with your thumb. But if the pages are to heave or too big, you can't turn them with your thumb alone as the page would just fold a bit and limpidly hang midway over your book.

not at all. it's a matter of page size and paper quality. hardcovers are the worst for this.

instead of holding the book in the middle, hold it at the bottom, with your thumb on the pages and other fingers on the cover, this allows you to turn pages one-handed. or hold it at the top by using your middle finger and forefinger to hold the pages open, using both of them to turn the pages.

dusty old books and occasionally an owner trying to mask the smell with a cheap candle or incense stick?

I prefer the bigger ones like Chapters that have a coffee store in them.
