I've mentioned before that I have a tendency to judge a book by its cover [quite literally]. The Book Cover Archive is, for me, like window-shopping for books. I imagine that if the cover is inspiring, the book must be too. Let's start shopping for some new summer reads...

Ambika -- I need to read it!!
One thing I enjoyed a lot when I lived in the US and in the UK was that I got to to see lots of great book covers. In Japan, the qualities of papers and covers of books are really good, but there aren't many books with great cover designs (apart from art related books). One of many disadvantages of art being too separated from everyday life in this country :(
