Here are a couple of images that people turned me on to. Thanks Mashanda and Elyse! Alas, I had a hard time tracking down the original sources, but there are links to the blogs that they were found on.

Many Many Thanks


Whoa whoa whoa, what's going on with this one? One co-worker plays both roles in this cover!


Thanks to everyone who has enjoyed this blog in its first few months of existence!

First, to my co-workers who always indulge me when I run around the store with a camera and a stack of books.

Second, to those of you who I DON'T work with who bothered to send me photos. Chanel, Andre, and Autumn. I love you for it! And for all of you who MEANT to document your favorite covers in 2008, you'll never believe this, but 2009 is officially the Year of Corpus Libris Photos. It says so on Wikipedia. I swear! You still have 11 months to e-mail them to me!

Finally, to all of you who posted links to Corpus Libris on your blogs and websites. Sincerely, Thank You.

My, my, Autumn, you seem to have aged a few... thousand... years since the last time I saw you! But your complexion is so clear!

And P.S. Skylighters thank you for the crumbly yumminess!

Corpus Libris has jumped the pond! Thanks to Andre in Portugal for these great photos. And I dig your blog (although I can't read Portuguese)!

I won't name names, but someone at Skylight said, "Okay, I'll be a part of your little project, just as long as no one has to see my face." For any of you who know our staff, I'll give you one guess... :) (I love you, CCH)

I'm particularly proud of Kevin's shirt in the background and the color contrast...
