It was my birthday on Sunday. My big present was a Nook (Barnes and Noble eReader) … the 3G+WiFi version.

I also got a cover for it, went on Monday to see what else B&N had and stuck with the cover my husband had picked out. I wanted a stand to use it with and they didn’t have anything for the Nook particularly except for one cover that can do that natively. I didn’t like that cover.

The cover I have is dark brown leather. It wraps around the Nook & snaps to protect it when closed, and wraps the opposite way to keep it like a one piece device with the cover snapped behind the Nook when in use.

The B&N employee that helped us looked at the regular book stands they sell and I looked at one and thought it would work, plus it was all metal and finished in a manner I love, love, love. It’s the Book Hug and it works well with my Nook in it’s cover. It sits perfectly inside it. If I want it there when plugged in, it just sits a big higher and one edge of the Nook rests in the upper front lip of the Book Hug stand. It doesn’t need charged very often, so it’s not a big deal to use it like that.
