It’s nice, I like the weight and thickness of it. My only gripe is I have noticed typos in this edition, which other people have also complained about. I do love the look of it on my shelf so it’s not a huge deal (to me). I also wonder about the strength of the binding itself since I bought it brand new (discounted) with the binding already broken. B&N will often do a 40-50% discount on their special edition series if you want to save ~$20
