Let's be honest:
We all judge books by their covers.
In fact, I'm pretty sure the main reason
I never read my required reading in school
was because of the shoddy artwork on top.
And finally, Penguin Books understands it's audience.
Have you seen their new collections?
Imagine them as the perfectly blended love children
of your high school drama darling & AP english bookworm.
They've got beautiful artistic bods holding in some fancy scribbles.

| These clothbound cuties are enchantingly available at Anthropologie, Liberty, & other fine stores. |

| Deep thinking & letterpress covers... for £5? Cheers to that. |
 |
| Bold colors for the adventuresome reader. |
 |
| Just looking at these books helps me understand love more. |
Aren't they gorgeous?
Each of them deserve top marks for unique style.
And with covers as pretty as this,
I may find myself giving those
overlooked summer reading lists
a second thought.
Thank goodness you're back. I was having AK withdrawals!!!
ReplyDeleteLove what Penguin is doing for books - I feel a classic read in my near future, now that they look this pretty!!
Welcome back! xo E
I'm so overhauling my book shelves and tossing out the ratty paperbacks! I've been eyeing the books at Anthropologie and didn't know Penguin had expanded the series... The flower covers are "blooming" great! Welcome back - we've missed you!

i am in LOVE with the classics reissued with the cloth covers...it makes me want to do nothing but sit with a cup of tea or a good glass of wine and read all night :)
