Beautiful Book Covers

I stumbled upon an art gallery, and thought to myself, ‘I’d design covers as beautiful as these.’

Then, I recognised both the travails and joy behind those delectable facades, and yearned, saying, ‘How long has it been since I last read a good one?’

p.s. i absolutely love books with unevenly bound leaves and serif fonts on cream paper, all wrapped in either a matte softcover or a hard-backed linen one.
