And for what? Why waste material like that? Why make the book that much less convenient and that much more flimsy?
I'm thoroughly unimpressed. #revolver

Only one cover is jammed inside the book. It's not even a hidden book, per se. The pages are split into two sections, and their order is reversed when the book is flipped inside out.
You don't seriously think those different colored covers are part of one book, do you? They showed 4 distinct books, with a very clear fade-to-black transition between them. If you look carefully, you'll see one color, and one color only sandwiched in the pages.
It's really not a hard puzzle here. It's just a stupid gimmick. #revolver

Straight from the horse's mouth: To Do and To Doodle. Put it in your pocket. Flip it around. [emphasis mine] Go both ways.
RJL02– Silver Lining
black flips to metallic silver
RJL01– Rioja
black turns to red
RJS01 – Little Blue
black revolves to blue
RJS02 – New Leaf
black turns over to green
And look at how there are 3 bands on each cover. It's an old old trick. The covers are bound to each other by those strips in a criss-cross pattern, allowing it to be freely folded in two directions. I've seen everything from video game packaging to eyeglass cases use that gimmick. It's really nothing special, I assure you, and it's not very durable either.
I hope that settles it. #revolver
