Welcome to Arbor ad Folia, a review of book design from the perspective of the reader. We plan to look into how a book's physical form affects the reader's experience. People will tell you: Don't judge a book by its cover. We'd like to tell you: You haven't the option.
So, welcome to Arbor ad Folia.

About Us
We're three students at St. John's College interested in the book as a specimen unto itself. We analyze books for quality of binding, design, format, editing, and many other things essential to a good reading experience. In short, this blog wants to discuss everything that we look at when reading a book, except the words written by the author.
