I don't read as much as I'd like to.
However, since I was young, I've always invested a decent slice of my birthday/Christmas money on some wonderful hardcovers; books which are becoming threatened by the growing attractiveness of iPads, Playbooks and Kindles.
Of course I am waiting until these beta products get their kinks worked out, and for mashable to do a more thorough study on which is best. And so I grow sad that soon it will be almost impossible to judge others on their reads as it will be harder to brag about mine. In preparation for this book-cover-less time, I've fallen in love with Olympia Le Tan's clever Parisian pieces. The book-shaped, felt-covered clutches in her new hand-embroidered handbag collection are inspired by the first-edition covers of some legit literary classics like "Moby Dick", "The Misfits", "Satan refuse du monde".
If only I could get my paws on a copy of "The Catcher in the Rye"
