I've got the Slimfit Gecko cover that I ordered for my original Glo. It's a very well made cover, the price is worth it, but I just didn't like dealing with that extra little flap to close it, it always got in my way. You have to make it a point to make sure it doesn't trigger a page turn when closing it. While reading I would bend it back so it was between the 2 cover layers to hold it in place, just another thing to deal with for me. So I wanted a plain book-type cover without any extra flap.

It's not that there's a universal 6" reader cover, but the Glo and Glo HD are so similar in size that all the various Glo covers I have fit the Glo HD. There's enough give to the plastic shells that the Glo HD would snap in without any problems for me, and wasn't too snug to be able to remove it like usual. The Glo HD is 1 mm taller and .8 mm narrower than the Glo.
