rubber bible

My new free ESV Trugrip Bible arrived this morning. (from the ESV blog Bible giveaway)

It's very lovely - the cover is bright orange and made of a really tactile rubber with wavy groove patterns on it so it feels really nice to hold. It smells quite strongly of wet paint but I'm hoping that'll wear off? Mmmmm.... small but perfectly formed.

Haven't had a chance to read any of it yet so I'll just leave you with that external description!

Never judge a book by its cover? Shame - I like this cover a lot!

Oh... and HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Dave who writes a great blog and was the person who told me about the ESV Bible Giveaway.
