When lockdown hit at the beginning of 2020, the need for self-preservation and being kinder to yourself was never more apparent. We promised ourselves we’d eat better food, we’d do more exercise, and we’d reconnect with old pastimes that had been swept away in favor of the rat race.
One thing that many of us vowed to do more of was read books. With virtual book clubs becoming more popular than ever before, it was clear immersing ourselves in fictitious literary worlds was the escape we needed.
But books weren’t the only creative outlet that grew in popularity, nor are they for everyone; film and TV definitely saw a boost, too. Disney+ couldn’t have landed at a better time, becoming the saccharin sweet fix we needed. The number of Netflix subscribers grew by 30 million during 2020, making it the firm favorite amongst streamers.

We can understand why so many people love it, and you’d be hard-pushed to find anyone that hasn’t at least heard of a show on Netflix. After all, it is responsible for some of the biggest, most popular original shows to hit our screens in recent years.

Orange Is The New Black
And this got us wondering, if popular Netflix original shows were books, would we want to read them? And the answer is absolutely yes! So we designed them… well, because why not?!
So, working in collaboration with Climadoor, here’s our take on what some of our favorite Netflix shows might look like as vintage books…

English teacher here..these are so good, and make me miss the days when books like this were common place. The cover art was a preview of what was ahead. Love it!!
Thank you for your lovely feedback! You're so right! There really is something so magical about a beaten up old book, almost as if they could tell a million more stories than just the one written inside it :)
