Crystalmarie (CrystalsNovels) | 37 comments Right! I agree. I am starting to love my Nook more && more as i go. I would pay that price all over again.


message 52: by Desiree (new)

Desiree (wickedlittlehigh) | 5 comments I have the Cambridge cover in chocolate (http://gifts.barnesandnoble.com/Cambr...) and I really like it. My boyfriend works at B&N and bought me the Nook/cover as my Christmas gift (live in customer service, and knowledgeable about accessories, etc!) and gave it to me early. I had the option of exchanging it but I really like it. It makes me feel like I'm holding a hardcover leather bound book. It looks like one as well. While there are many covers I love (from looking at them at the store so often), but I did not feel the necessity of high priced Kate Spade brand. I'm sure I'll buy other ones as time goes on.

I also got that, but returned it as I had the one that has the light in it. LOVE it!! I read around an hour every night when I go to bed and that keeps me from having a light on and keeping my husband awake. Decided not to keep the other cover since I didn't want to be switching back and forth all of the time.

Kelly  Smith  (kander33) Hey guys, does anyone have a good cover for their nook color? I just received one for Christmas, the nook color that is, and I want to make sure I order something that will protect it well but be easy when I am reading. Thanks for the tips!!!

★Meghan★ (starinheaven) | 340 comments I got this one: http://gifts.barnesandnoble.com/Pater... but I also want http://gifts.barnesandnoble.com/Post-... I also like all the designs on www.oberondesign.com


message 56: by Kelly (new)

Kelly  Smith  (kander33) I really like the second one Meghan. The first one seems nice too, but I love the idea of having something to secure it closed. Thanks for the tips.


message 57: by ★Meghan★ (new)

★Meghan★ (starinheaven) | 340 comments I do too. But I knew that I was getting a Nookcolor for Christmas and I know how bad I can be with my stuff. Since the second one isn't out yet I will have to wait.

Sara (sarajoybrown) | 12 comments I got a NookColor for Christmas, and gave my daughter my original Nook for Christmas, and she got a new cover for it, so I'm selling this cover, if anyone's interested: http://gifts.barnesandnoble.com/Madis... - it's in really good condition. I have it on Craigslist for $30, but I'm open to offers - I'd have to receive payment via paypal (for whatever we agree on and to cover shipping) before I'd send it out. I have all the original packaging and everything - it's really been a great case, my 8-year-old just wanted something different! :)


message 59: by Ana (new)

Ana (sugaroni) I searched and searched for a protective sleeve that I liked but my criteria was pretty specific. I wanted something ligthweight, no velcro (I wanted to be stealthy when taking my Nook in and out of its case) and inexpensive (in case I didn't like it). So I ended up just sewing one up.

Peekaboo, litttle Nook!

I basically cut four squares of quilt fabric 2 inches larger than the Nook. I sandwiched lightweight quilt batting between the layers and then sewed it up. I added a button closure at the top. It took me a little over an hour and since I used scraps and stuff I already had, it was free. Done.


message 60: by Samantha (new)

Samantha Leighanne (sleighanne) I ordered a neoprene case for my nook that I got for Christmas, but I was looking for something like a silicone case to keep it from getting scratch and such. I was actually looking on Overstock.com to see if I could find a laptop tote, and I came across these
http://www.overstock.com/Electronics/...
I really want one, but I'm kind of undecided.

They also have the screen protectors for a few dollars cheaper than on the B&N site, and I happened to find this
http://www.overstock.com/Electronics/...
Its a water resistant case for your Nook. I'm not sure how well it would work, but I just thought that I Would post it in case anyone was interested!

I think that first one is the one I bought, and I really disliked it. It added so much heft to the reader and I found the bright color distracting. (I got the pink.) YMMV.

That waterproof case looks really chintzy to me. My husband carries his kindle in a ziplock bag and that doesn't look much different. ;-)

I may get a screen protector while it's $1 shipping, though.

Thanks for posting! I actually just stick my nook in a sturdy Ziploc when I'm headed out to the beach, too :)

I got a black and green nook case on Amazon...

Haha! Niiiice! ((To the cover and the Zip lock))

Margaret (arya_stark) | 10 comments I have this one in purple http://www.amazon.com/JAVOedge-Cherry...

I love it!


message 67: by KimWin (new)

KimWin | 34 comments I have had 4 covers. The first three weren't exactly what I wanted. I had the pink envelope, the neopherene sleeve and another pink one that surounded my nook. I much prefer my jonathan adler version. The one thing that I have always had is the screen protectors! I won't have any screens bare!

Jeanie Annette (grumpysunshinegirl) I bought mine from Casephile on Etsy and adore it!

TheThirdLie O.O

I really like those cases! I'm considering buying that person's Peace cover. Thanks for sharing their site!

So did I! We're twins! Which one did you get?"


I got the "peace doodle" one, but had her take the closure tab and button off :) I love the way it folds around! Which one did you get?

Here's mine...

message 71: by TheThirdLie (new)

TheThirdLie Have you ever had any kind of issue with the Nook coming out of the case? I'm wary about the little straps at the bottom.


message 72: by TheThirdLie (new)

TheThirdLie I saw the top ones, I just wasn't sure how secure it would be for the bottom. Thanks for the answer though, that's good to know it's well made.



Jeanie: It looks aweeeesome! I have that background on my Nook to, well, have it available. Currently using a different peace background though. =]


message 73: by Donnajo (new)

Donnajo I like that doodle peace cover. I keep resisting the Oberon covers. I need to start working on my needlepoint one. I liked my quote cover so much when I bought it but now that one I'm even getting bored with.

I just love peace signs and hearts...hubby bought me the peace, love and open hearts for Chistmas ♥

I've never had a problem either, I was really surprised how well the Nook stays in, it's snug as a bug :)

Michelle wrote: "Oooh! I like that one. I got mine back in August, I think. I just went back and looked and there are so many new cases that I want another! This is the one I got, I LOVE the color/pattern of the material on the inside"

I like that one!!! Yea, I've gone back to her store just about everyday since I bought mine to see what else she adds! I'm eyeing one of her iphone monster cases too :)

Linda Boyd (boydlinda95gmailcom) | 360 comments So, where did you guys get the cute backgrounds??? I don't think I have those on my Nook. can you see that I'm "green" with envy!! :)

From Nook Look! They have tons!


message 77: by Donnajo (new)

Donnajo I've never gotten new backgrounds either. But I've seen some great ones on nook look. I just don't want to start playing with things I don't know how to do I guess.

I love my Nook. I got it in November, and i got the case shortly thereafter. I have a blue case that I will eventually be putting a picture of my two baby cats in. :) My Nook case has straps at the TOP of the case. They're very secure. Going to try and buy another case to switch out once in a while. Unfortunately, all of the cases I really like are for the Nook Color. I have the Nook WiFi

Thank you Jeanie, it is pretty easy to download them on your Nook????

Very easy. Just make sure you put them in a folder in your screensavers folder, and give the folder a name. Also they may need to be "unzipped" first, if they have several images.

Linda Boyd (boydlinda95gmailcom) | 360 comments Ok, I will not be a chicken and try it, I'm sure I can do it. thanks!! :)
