Usually I buy books for their content, but I'll admit to occasionally making a purchase strictly because I like the design. These two books, luckily, are a combination of both.

I found this vintage one in a pile at a goodwill shop over the summer and love the simplicity of the design.

This one is part of a series of newly designed Puffin Classic Hardcovers that came out last year. I couldn't resist the color palette and pattern.... 

 ...or the nice endpapers. The Secret Garden cover from the series is also really nice.

  1. I really dig the Cyrano book cover design, especially his long nose which often got him into duels.

    The animals on Robin Hood book cover seem to suggest that they are the merrymen of Sherwood forest
