books

I have an obsession with orderly bookshelves and reading classic novels, so I can't wait to purchase the full set of Popular Penguins. Each book in the fifty book series (which includes everything from Breakfast at Tiffany's to On the Road) has a simple classic orange cover, harking back to the original Penguin books from the 1930s. And the best thing about no frills is that it's cheap - each Popular Penguin is only $12.95, which means there's no excuse not to be well-read. Or to have a well-ordered bookshelf.
