Its very nicely done, specially when the available ebook covers are so expensive. This one is aesthetically very nice :)

Awesome instructable, it was just what I was looking for.
Since I couldn't find a decent looking hard-cover book lying around that I could part with, I took this once step further by covering the outside of the book in fabric as well. I used the same method that you outline for the inside, but did the outside first. I can see lots of possibilities here.
B&N cover $29.99-59.99, my cover (made from stuff lying around the house) free.
Thanks!

Very nice Instructable! I'm going to start looking for a book as soon as I get home. This is much nicer than the overpriced ones B&N sells. Thanks!
