I really like the feel of these editions. The cover paper isn't shiny but has the texture of paper or cardbord and imo that makes it feel more valuable
THEY ALL LOOK SO BEAUTIFUL!!And I am so happy that Penguin sent you sone more of them.I had no idea that it had become hard to get your hands on some of these,huh,you live and you learn
These are all SO BEAUTIFUL! And you've got me interested in The Beetle now. :D I'm sad that a lot of them are out of print, but I suppose happening upon the ones you want will be a wonderful treat now!
Yes! It's suuuuuper exciting to go on a little hunt for them and try and find them. I went on a book shopping trip recently and the bookseller helped me scour the second-hand classics section for them, it was so great!
I do not want to collect penguin classics, I do not want to collect penguin classics....so nice. I’ve been picking up the clothbounds bit by bit but these are so nice too.,argh.
They are beautiful, aren't they?! I adore the clothbounds as well but I've made a decision not to collect multiple editions of books unless they're absolute favourites. I unhauled a bunch of Austens in different pretty editions because I only need one copy of them, and I want them to be the PELs... it can be hard to resist such beautiful designs though!

I have a second copy of Shirley! I bought a stock pack a couple of years ago because it worked out cheaper that way. I could send it to you!
omg yes. Do you have Twitter or somewhere I can DM you?
Leanne Rose of course! Twitter is @empressbethie or you can get me on Instagram @bethieandbooks 😊
Those new ones look exciting!
There are 15 others and honestly it is taking all of my self-control to avoid buying them RIGHT NOW :')
Moses! That’s... oh.... that’s a lot of books....

Phwoar, those are a bit nice!
I'm a very lucky ducky!
Did they change the covers from the matte feel to regular?
