7 Cute Book Sleeves to Protect Your Favorite Reads

Every book lover knows that feeling: you’ve picked a perfect, brand new book off the shelf. The dust jacket is soft and smooth; the pages are crisp; the spine gives a satisfying crack when you open it for the first time. And while there’s something charming about the signs of an oft-read book—rumpled pages, creased book covers, even a small stain or two—sometimes we want to preserve that new-book patina for just a little longer.

Lucky for you, keeping that book pristine doesn’t necessarily mean letting it languish on your shelf. Fabric book sleeves allow you to toss your book (or even an e-reader!) in your bag along with the rest of your belongings, without fear of scuffs or crumpled pages. Below are a few of the best book sleeves on the market. Each one is adorable and affordable, and a great gift for a book lover!
