Allow me to put you to sleep with the following post about a Kobo Aura HD sleepcover I ordered from Amazon. There is an exciting part to this post, and that’s the part where I actually bought the Kobo Aura HD.

I’m lying. That part wasn’t exciting at all. It was about as exciting as waiting in line at Indigo in a warm coat. Groan.

So anyway, a sleepcover was needed so I ordered one from Amazon for 13 bucks. Pretty good deal, and when it finally showed up after 6 weeks of hard travelling from Asia, I was pretty stoked. The contents say “Gadget”

It actually does everything it said it would, as it should. The Kobo Aura HD fits snugly inside, and once it’s in there, you can’t even get it out afterwards. But why would you want to? Here is where it will live until it all breaks. Indeed, a photo is now required along with a broken garlic press for scale. I guess the Kobo Aura HD itself could have been used for scale, but in reality, I just wanted to talk about how my favorite garlic press in th whole world broke while instead of doing the job it was put on this earth to do: press a clove of garlic! It really came as a shock and  now need to buy a new garlic press.

Here’s another shot of the sleepcover. This time it’s closed, which is another flawless  feature that it has. Not only does it close in the same manner that a book might, it also puts the Kobo Aura to sleep, which is the whole point.

Edit: Well, at last check, this sleepcover has almost doubled in price and is now selling for 22$. That economy!
