has anyone else been enjoying these as much as I have? they're about five dollars a piece, they're hardcover, and they're pretty looking too. XD so far, I've bought:

Jane Eyre
Alice in Wonderland
The Age of Innocence
The Phantom of the Opera (haven't read this yet)
The Secret Garden

they're cheaper than manga and they're fantastic reads. I highly recommend them. :3

are they in a section of their own? or just mixed in with the other stuff?

at our B&N, they're on a display near the front of the store.

I got Alice in Wonderland and was very disappointed to find all the lovely illustrations missing. How am I supposed to read Alice in Wonderland to my mom if she can't see the Mock Turtle?

I have seen these in stores but haven't actually bought any. How good is their quality? Some of the other Barnes & Noble hardback books I own have not been very well-made (which is to be expected, considering their price).

so far...hmm. I've read one of the books a few times over and it seems to be holding up fairly well.

I found "Dracula" in a thrift store, very good condition...and cheaper than the regular price! :grin:
