well, i mostly want to read the book because of the cover..then when i found that the story were boring while the cover still look attractive, i'll scan it and save it!(^.^)
I saw them at the British Library (London obviously) and it's a range of hardcover classics bound in cloth, and decorated with the most gorgeous muted colours and patterns. It's been so hard to resist buying them all!
Such a lovely post! As much as I love to read and to shop for books, I'm particularly pleased when I find a book I want with a pretty cover. Thanks for the wonderful link, I've bookmarked the website!
i love these! Such beautiful covers, I always feel that it is such a shame to display books with their spines on display when there are covers like these xx
yeah, i read in some fantasy romance novel, beautiful girls always carry a HARD COVER textbook, strolling around the campus, in Chinese someting like no-eating-civil-smoke-and-fire, you know...I got one or two of that cover couple years ago, though...
it's so difficult not to judge books by their covers when the covers are as beautiful as these!
lovely lovely covers. i collect old rare books, and the covers are definitely part of the charm.
What a fun combination of book covers!
These are a delight!
