Artori Design Book Ends to Hold Books Heavy Duty - Hidden Metal Bookends for Shelves Desk or countertop - Bookend Book Holder for Home Decorative - Gift for Book Lovers and Home Décor (Book&Hero)

The main thing you have to know is that they are designed to have the last book leaning against a wall or something to prevent sliding. In my case i bought the superman too for support while creating a nice view of him pushing the books over the runaway fellas. On the more technical, for the superman bookend you would probably have to use a paperback book for the magnets to attach together as with hardbacks they dont, at least for the couple of hardbacks i tried. For the other one though it is the opposite. For the runaways, because the stand has smaller angle of elevation, the paperbacks slip a bit. The best way is to put a thin hardback first, which will hold nicely and then add any books you like. All in all, i consider it a great buy and totally recommend.

Love it. Make sure the first book is a soft cover because if not it won't work.

Very eye catching book end. My son loves it for his room.

They're bookends, specifically for a kitchen - so you're going to pay a premium price for a niche product that is nearly impossible to find. I was satisfied with the look, feel, and quality of the product even though it was a lot more than I expected to spend. That being said, in this day and age try finding bookends - anywhere - and see how well you do. No one sells them anymore. I appreciate this vendor making these available, and had no regrets about paying the money for the product I wanted. They look great holding up all the cookbooks we've collected over the years.

It is good. Looks nice. Mine came exactly as announced.

Cool look for a teenagers room..s A novelty effect I wanted to get before everyone had one. But for this price the magnets are cheap and weak. Only works through thin paperback

Llegó todo bien, un bonito accesorio.

This bookend is exactly like the picture shows it. Very cute, and gets compliments from guests. We are happy. Your books lean over and don't fall over. The book closest to the running figures has the metal plate between the cover and body of the book. We store our birding books on a shelf between our dining room and living room with this bookend, and this has been the only issue: it's more of a hassle to remove the book near the figures than to remove a book from a normal bookshelf. So....pick a book you don't pull down often to use for the last book. We use all of our bird books often, so we encounter this. It's not a huge hassle - just a few extra seconds to retrieve the rightmost book, and we would definitely buy again and are loving the bookend.
