I received many bookish gifts for Christmas (more on those later). In fact, most of the gifts with my name on them turned out to be delightfully literary-based. I’m easy to buy for like that. One of the only non-literary themed gifts was from The Chef, who gave me a fancy, shiny, amazing new phone: a Samsung Galaxy S III. It’s heavenly, and I am in love (with both it and my husband). Really, it is perfection. Except, of course, for one small detail. It isn’t bookish enough. My solution? This, dear readers. This.
If it looks familiar, it’s because I wrote about something similar here. I’m over-the-moon with nerdy glee! A plain case would work just as well, but if you can put a bookish spin on something utilitarian…why not?

I sooooo want that phone cover. How fun and ultra awesome. Pardon me while I google bookish phone covers.

Etsy! There are so many to choose from. I’ve had my eye on this one since I did the Gatsby SFTB over the summer. I didn’t have an appropriate phone then, but I do now so I scooped it up. I cannot wait until it arrives!

I love it! Totally unique. I have a feeling that I am going to end up with at least 2 or 3 cases for my Galaxy S III. A bookworm’s got to have options. For now, though, I will stick with Gatsby. 🙂

You must, MUST have this. I love Gatsby’s socks and the martini he’s working on.

No worries, I bought it yesterday! Now I must be patient until it arrives, which is easier said than done. I’ve had my phone 8 days, and am treating it so gingerly it is ridiculous. I need my Gatsby case to come to the rescue!

You’re ladies after my own heart. I’m so jealous of your S Galaxy, perhaps I’ll get one of those bookish covers, fill it with a plain one and pretend I’ve got an S or I phone. They’re ridiculously expensive in Europe…..

If something isn’t a book or about a book, then I will find a way to make it so! The phones aren’t cheap over here, either, although they aren’t prohibitively expensive. Fortunately, mine was a gift! I bet you can find a bookish gelaskin, or something similar, for whatever phone you have. 🙂
