My new Obsession...

...Hardback Classics in beautiful fabric covers. I'm absolutely in love with these redesigned classics and looking forward to owning every one. The talented Coralie Bickford-Smith redesigned the classics for our reading pleasure. Even though, I have read some of these before I'm thinking about re-reading them because they have to be even better in their new beautiful jacket!
