Beauty in Books

I don’t just like reading books; I like books. I like their binding, their design, their font, their florals, their cover designs, their pagination, their layout, their texture, their beauty.

For example, while reading Jerry Bridges’ The Pursuit of Holiness I was struck by the beauty of the letter Q.

Isn’t that a beautiful Q? Look how long its tail is and how elegantly it swoops under two vowels. I love it.

  1. That is indeed a beautiful Q. I also love books and have things that catch my eye that most people just pass by without enjoying.
