Review: Much better cover than the past ones I've had!

When I realized I had to get a new Kindle and had decided on the Paperwhite, I debated on whether or not to order the official cover. The last time cover I bought was the leather lighted cover for the Keyboard and it was the reason THAT Kindle ended up going on the fritz. Despite my hesitations, I went for it.I'm extremely happy with this one. It helps that there aren't any hooks to line up but rather, this is a simple cover that does its job in protection and usability. It's slim and doesn't add unnecessary weight to the device and the cover folds back all the way so that it feels like I'm holding JUST the Kindle. It was pushed back easily unlike other covers I've seen in the past (not for the Paperwhite) where the front cover is stiff and needs to be forced back for a period of time until it is pliable. The device popped right in, but i will admit that I haven't tried to take it out again.As for the color - I knew the minute I saw the persimmon color that I had to have it. I'm not usually one for orange-y shades but it has just enough pop to not get lost in one of my giants bags but the thin line of color around the device when it's open doesn't distract at all.
