  • Pad the Image (selected by default, uses internal CSS)
  • Display a Box-Shadow (selected by default, uses internal CSS)

as well as

  • Decide whether you would like to use a Title
  • Define the ISBN-10 or ISBN-13 of the book.

  2. Go to “Appearance” → “Widgets” and drag the “Reading” widget into whichever Sidebar you choose.
