Hi Jim,
Version 3 is lovely, but I do find "where were ones once read" a bit of a tongue-twister!
Could "what most I loved when I was young" be "what I loved most when I was young"? It's more like natural speech than the inversion.
Aside from two small niggles I really like the sheer joy that the N demonstrates over his love of books (that's how I feel, too!).
