Words have always carried more weight with me than images – give me a book over its movie any day – but I do love to see the beautiful images other people create when they’re in love with a book. That’s not my strength, but I can certainly appreciate it in others! So here’s a few of my faves based on what I’ve been reading recently.

I’ve had this little book of poetry on my kindle for a while, waiting for when the time felt right. That time came this weekend, and I was swept away by this lovely set of poems! SO grateful to have this in my back pocket for tough days now. I’ll definitely be buying the physical copy, because it’s gorgeous (as you’ll see below) and feels like the kind of thing you want to give physical presence to.
Ahhhh, it’s so gorgeous. The original poster’s account is gone now, but the author has a repost, luckily!
And yes, of course, the poetry is gorgeous too ^.^

I had been looking forward to this for a while, but it left me lukewarm at best. Still, I can definitely enjoy the idea behind it and the idea in front of it. Or… on the front of it. Ok, that didn’t go so well, but basically I LOVE THE COVERS. I had no idea there were so many!
I gotta admit… I’m eyeing that ice cream at least as much as the cover. Plus what is that, some kind of blueberry tea drink? Looks hella good.
And we have another new cover, and this one even has a (slightly) different name!
Well you can’t win them all
One was a lovely find from something not well known, and one was well known that was a bit of a letdown. Trust your gut, I suppose, and look at least a little further than the cover.
