Hello, welcome back to another Book Traveling 
Thursdays, which a weekly meme created by Cátia @The Girl Who Read Too Much and Danielle @Danielle’s Book Blog. The goal is to share the covers of a book related to that week’s theme, which you can see at the Goodreads group, indicating the original cover, the one of your country, your favorite and least favorite.
This week’s theme is “Every book has a special someone! Choose a book with your bookish boyfriend“. This is hard! I have an obscena amount of book-boyfriends – I might actually make a list of it – but a lot of them belong to books that I either already used, or which covers are not very diverse. So I decided to go classic! And classic means Mr. Darcy! Yes, Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.
Original COver:
The book being over 200 years and all, the original cover was pretty much generic and “classic”. eheh… ugly!
COVER FROM MY COUNTRY (PORTUGAL) & COVER FROM THE COUNTRY I LIVE IN (SPAIN):
As any classic, there are several editions of this book in each language, so I’ll just give a few good ones: portuguese, spanish and catalan editions.
Favorite COVER(s):
I’m a sucker for classics collections, and these are part of some of my favorites collections – that I wished I owned! They’re all from the Penguin collections.
LEAST FAVORITE COVER(s):
There are some truly hideous covers for this book, so I decided to only show a few of the recent ones ;-). I think these are 3 very ugly covers for such a beautiful book. I think these 3 editions are from the US, but it’s hard to tell :P.
The Penguin editions are so pretty. They always have the best covers. You should have seen the portuguese edition I have. It’s the movie tie-in for the 2005 movie but in a ugly way
is it ugly? oh :(, I only saw the tie in with the full front cover with Lizzie and it’s pretty…
All my Jane Austen books are from the book.it collection that is sold in Continente. They’re not pretty but they were cheap XD
:D, my pride and prejudice and sense and sensibility were super cheap too, 3 euros or something at fnac. pocket editions
I know which ones you’re talking about 😀 . When I found those editions I already had all of the books. I still want to buy one of that books that fnac has that has all of her works 🙂
yep, my friends bought that. it’s big! I have 3 books from one of the collections i like (the one in the middle), i’m only lacking sense and sensibility and pride and prejudice 😦 – I need them all to match!
It’s huge. I have two books from that collection and I can’t leave the house with them XD . Mine match but they are all ugly. Emma has Gwyneth Paltrow in the cover
oh, bah!!!! no no no… at least they were cheap, right? 😉
yep. That’s the good thing about the books 😛
😀 my dickens are the black penguin cheap ones too, and I love them 😀
One of my Dickens books is so old and so small. It’s funny to look at it XD . The other one is in the same edition as the portuguese Pride and Prejudice you have here. It’s hardcover and beautiful
oohhh 😀 ❤
I still hated the book XD
lol
I don’t even like this book and I’ve still been drooling over the collection cover to the right, I want it XD The last one in your least favorites is the worst, did they make that in Paint?? LOL.
that cover is so ugly, right? this book has a lot of ugly covers – I couldn’t be bothered to go through the 80 pages of covers on goodreads, eheh…
I’m loving this feature! It’s a great way to spread book cover love! I’ might have to join 🙂
you should :D, we get to see the covers from all over the world!
I’m (trying) to write today’s now!
yuppiii 😀
Just posted it!!
*gonna read it*
You must love your book boyfriend despite all the ugliness in the covers!
😉
I love Darcy!!! I have the Barnes & Noble edition which is sooooo pretty as well 🙂 I want to own them all!
oh, those are so pretty too 😀
I actually really like the Spanish and Portugese covers! Also the ones you listed as favourites. Tell me, how did you manage to choose a bookish bf? I CAN’T SEEM TO DO IT! EVER!
the fact that I had already picked Jem for another of these posts, and Heir of Fire and Wallbanger don’t have enough covers… so I went classic! I love the portuguese and spanish covers too, those at least, because we have like 100 editions in each country :D. the one I own is simple but I kind of like it.
I know! All the classics have like a gazillion covers in every single language hahaha
yes, it’s so exhausting :P. I didn’t even bothered to look for covers 😉 I went to the portuguese and spanish online shops and saw the covers available right now. eheh. my favorites were picked since last year
