Bug Description

The recent change to dark-mode background made me think of this.

Currently, if you have a book of a similar colour as the background, it's difficult to tell where the cover actually begins. (See the screenshot taken in the current stable version.) A border, or a drop-shadow if you're feeling particularly fancy, would be a bit helpful here.

Though with the changes, this is probably more applicable for those who use light mode.

Thank you!

Why does knowing where the cover ends matter? Adding an extra border
doesnt look very nice IMO
