This book is full of books

[cyrano]

I'm looking at Kindle accessories, thinking about a cover for my Yuletide present. Right now I'm leaning toward repurposed books, something like I think Roisnoir would come up with. I'm leery of things that would cover the keyboard, or insets that would make clicking the 'turn page' buttons inaccessible, and I'm looking for suggestions from either Kindle readers or artists or Kindle artists.

I bought this one:

I like it because:
1. The vertical flip and stand makes it good for reading while eating breakfast at a table. I can also stick a finger in between when it is open which makes it easy to read one-handed.
2. The edges of the leather stick out just enough to protect edge drops, and the front can close to protect the screen in a bag (already had one free out-of-warranty screen replacement before getting the case, thanks Amazon!)
3. Sparkly red!

Also, a gallon-size Ziploc makes your Kindle bathtub-safe.

Also, 85% off (plus $4 shipping).
A $13 investment doesn't sound too bad, even if it's not the look I was going for.

Make sure it fits your Kindle version! I have a Kindle 2.

Good call. All I know is "it has a keyboard". (:
I figure the box or the docs tell me though.
