Another way to describe where I am coming from, is to say the following.
When I look at my device, I don't want to see or think the following.
Kindle, Samsung, etc.
Ereader or Tablet.
Toy or Tech device.
In short, I just want to see a book, and a decent cover can give you that at the very least, but also grant protection and nice feelings just like a real book.
Books are marvelous things, without a doubt.
