Check out an updated list that puts together the best cases thanks to which your Kindle will look like a beautiful print book.
More and more readers discover amazing benefits of ebooks. There is, however, one thing no e-reader or tablet can give – the pleasure of touching the most magic object in the world: the print book.
Kindle cases that resemble real books or are made the same way as classic hardcovers are usually less convenient than ultra-advanced slimline covers. However, the opportunity of looking at the object of desire as often as possible is still for many users the most important factor.
Such cases are a great gift idea for someone who loves reading but is still not fully convinced to ebooks because of their lack of magic.
If you want to gift the Kindle to such a person, make sure to bundle it together with a great looking book-style case. Do even more: surprise her or him by gifting the Kindle already put inside such a cover!
In the list below, we have pt together the best cases – not only from Amazon, but also Etsy, where you can find many items that can be customized. Enjoy!

Our pick: Best “Composition Book” case for Kindle
Notebooks with the iconic pseudo-marbling design, called “composition books,” started appearing in Europe in the 18th century. The design was never copyrighted, so it can be used and modified by anyone.
This iconic artwork is among most sought after case designs on Amazon, and is offered for several devices. Fintie, our favorite case producer, created the design for a case tailored for Kindle Paperwhite.
The case supports auto sleep & wake feature, and sports a microfiber interior to prevent the display from scratches.
3. “Old Book” case for the basic Kindle

This design from MoKo is one of the finest you can get right now.
The case combines the modern lightweight leather design (made of faux leather) with a subtle ornament on the front resembling the artwork found in old library books.
4. Book-style origami Kindle case
