Too Lovely Book Covers!

Hello there, readers! Today I want to share one of my absolute favorite book cover designers with you: Coralie Bickford-Smith. You might be familiar with the exquisite clothbound classics series she recently designed for Penguin (I know the Mom-Squad has a few on her shelves), but Bickford-Smith has also created charming covers for a series of boy's adventure classics and several F. Scott Fitzgerald books, which are so glam and Gatsby-esque.

I would absolutely love to have a few of these (aka ALL of them) gracing my bookshelves, and think they would make a great go-to gift for all sorts of occasions--Sense and Sensibility for a girlfriend's birthday, A Christmas Carol on the holidays, Penguin's Poems for Love and Life for a wedding, perhaps the 10-book set as a really nice housewarming present, etc. The best part of these beauties?? They retail for a ridiculously reasonable price: under $20 each on Amazon! Too lovely!!!
