Between a never-ending email inbox and the latest iPhone app, it’s become nearly impossible to tune out technology. Yet despite the global movement towards tablets, print is anything but dead. Who doesn’t love escaping to a good book at the end of the day? Not to mention a well-designed one. Below I’ve detailed some of my favorite book covers that are sure to help you unplug and will sit pretty on your shelves. Enjoy!

A London-based publisher and bookseller, each of Persephone Books’ publications features a sophisticated grey jacket, a fabric endpaper, and matching bookmark. The cohesive collection is a minimalist’s dream that compliments any bookcase. Plus, the bookseller specializes in works written by female authors, resulting in some seriously chic girl power.
