Different isn't bad, it's just not the same.
And what a nice selection of LMM novels! Although I still don’t understand why “Anne’s House of Dreams” is under “children 9-12” category #booksky

Such a stunning edition of “Anne of Green Gables”! It has everything- hardback linen cover, painted page ends, ribbon bookmark and illustrations! #booksky @waterstones.bsky.social

We don’t need YA-ssified classics, we want classics with annotations, beautiful illustrations and handwritten letters. #booksky

There are so many examples of “different” covers that are so well executed. The new Penguin edition is just not it. #booksky

“Modern” covers can be done if they correspond well with the story (even when they’re not “historically accurate”)

There’s a quiet elegance of the “old fashioned” covers of the classics. Not all the books need a modern romance/cartoon style covers and there’s no need for new editions just so they can match the bookshelf “aesthetic” #booksky

I always find it weird to see “Anne” series displayed in children’s section (but all of these for £20? A deal of a lifetime) #booksky

Cranford Collection journals! Which one would you choose? #booksky

I saw this edition of “Wuthering Heights” three times today- is it a sign from the universe that I should get it? #booksky

Me: expecting to find LMM books in the classics section
LMM books found in: children’s section, new arrivals, big format (with a stunning photo of LMM at the back) and a random selection by the register

One of my favourite things whilst ebay browsing is finding inscriptions inside old books and thinking about people who wrote them and those who received them (and often it’s the reason I buy a book)

Did I mention gilded page ends?

Spotted: Wordsworth Heritage Collection (including “Anne of Green Gables”!) is absolutely stunning- perfect size, clothbound, gorgeous prints, ribbon bookmark

Which one would you take home?
