They look like classic fairytale books, you know the ones with those elegant and ornate looking spines?
And the colors! So bright and vivid! I love the cover art, too  | |

And the colors! So bright and vivid! I love the cover art, too They really do look like books from the Medival periods but Harry Potter is a classic! By the way, what's in a Deluxe Edition of the book? I never was able to get my hands on a copy in the US cuz I was out of the country but it looked good!

I don't know if you'll check this message later on, but the French deluxe editions actually include illustrated boxes (as you may see on the pictures), hard colored covers (with a small reproduction of the illustration of the box), titles/Hogwarts year/author written in gold on it... The pages of the books have golden borders and the paper is incredibly soft. I just love reading them. It just looks like an old book from Hogwarts library!
On a personnal note, I will buy Book 3 and 4 on July, 27th. So, if you want more informations/pictures of them, I'd be glad to send them off to you! 
And as you guys are enjoying the incredible artworks on the covers, you can find loads of HP artworks by the same artist, Jean-Claude Götting, on his official website (he made all the French covers and some illustrations for French newspapers as well). | |
