Just when you think the nerd chic look couldn't get any further, Penguin decides to publish three classics with brand new covers by illustrator Ruben Toledo. It's a great update for the old covers that scream, "I'm a classic! I'm boring!". Maybe this will get more people reading... or pretending to read just to look smart. Anything that can help sales is good in this recession!

ReplyDeletethose are so chic!! i absolutely would love to purchase the pride and prejudice one! any idea when they're on sale? xx
ReplyDeleteThese are great covers. They are so stylish and would make u go back if you skipped it lol.
ReplyDeletethese are ACTUALLY fantastic books. not boring. and if i caught anyone reading these "pretty versions" i would only frown at them. for thinking they would look trendy buy buying something trendy. that is compeltely gay.
