The new series is right here: Latest Book Releases | The Folio Society Folio society forum

They’re all stunning, however there may be none on this set that I might spend lots of cash on. The clearly high priced one on this set is The Divine Comedy, which is £seven hundred!

If I became going to splash out on one in every of their present day variants, I’d purchase Mr Rabbit’s Symphony of Nature and Other Tales through Charles van Sandwyk, due to the fact the font and the illustrations are so stunning. If may want to clearly clearly splash out, I’d get the His Dark Materials trilogy. The spines and slipcase of which can be ridiculously quite through themselves. But it is £155…

They had been certain in silk however the solar has bleached the colour. I truely like them the manner they’re, however I anticipate that solar `damage` is why they had been that charge. Most of those I actually have had been less expensive than or the identical charge as a regular hardback. They all genuinely are for studying, however it does additionally make me satisfied to have a take a observe them due to the fact they`re so quite :lol:.

Always a very good motive to shop for books, they’re to experience after all. I’m on an Insta account who buys books for his or her covers, which intrigues me. So, she has more than one copies of the identical ee-e book with exclusive liveries .  eel2 I’d by no means heard of that either.
