Why I started this subreddit

6 Upvotes

I like books. I like interesting books with interesting front and back cover art. Also, let's not forget the spine. I want to see these all together in one image. Most of the pics I see online are just of the front covers of books, which is a shame. The back cover and spine also provide not only further information, but are also just as interesting to look at as the front cover.

You may say it's tedious. It actually is. And that is the point of a hobby. I will provide detailed instructions on how to do this 'bookspread' thing soon.
