Cover Slut

I may have mentioned at some point in the past that I, fo sho, judge books by their covers. If there's a choice between a nice cover and a not-so-nice one, I go nice cover every time, even if it means spending more. I recognize the stupidity in this, but hey.

I know that you're always being told that it's what's on the inside that counts, but when it comes to books...nah. Aesthetics are important. In short...

My name is Kitty, and I am addicted to book covers.

My point? I have recently discovered Penguin Deluxe Classics. Dude. They are so PRETTY.

Just look at Emma:

Or the Wizard of Oz:

The Wizard of Oz: and Other Wonderful Books of Oz: the Emerald City of Oz and Glinda of Oz

Preeeeeeettttty. Pretty.

There are others. There's The Scarlet Letter: 

The Scarlet Letter

And Jane Eyre: 

Jane Eyre

I have complete book lust. I want ALL of these. I have read them all already, but now I want to get them and stroke them.

I need to delete my Book Depository account now. Otherwise I may order all of the above, and that would be bad (and, if I'm honest, I got the Jane Eyre one already....).
