Judging Books by their Covers
I always do it, sometimes I’m disappointed, sometimes I strike gold but here are five books I want to read based solely on their covers, the titles are pretty fabulous too though.
You Wish by Mandy Hubbard
I want cupcakes!
Extraordinary by Nancy Werlin
Just gorgeous
It Started with a Dare by Lindsey Faith Rech
Ooh what started?
Daughter of Winter by Pat Lowery Collins
Enchanted Ivy by Sarah Beth Durst

I'm the same way, and I've been burned by that. Luckily I borrowed the books from the library instead of bought them because I was pretty disappointed. There have been a few that I was happy about, but I have to be really careful to not completely judge on the cover. There is nothing more irritating than looking at an amazing image and then having to associate it with a less-than-stellar story.

I would read Daughter of Winter and You Wish simply by the covers! Well, and then I'd read the back and the first chapter. If I was still interested, then I'd finish the book. But I'm totally a cover fanatic.

I think the cover for You Wish is going to increase the sales of cupcakes :P. I love it! It Started With A Dare looks awesome too.

I also love these covers! Especially Enchanted Ivy, I really want to read that one. Anyway, I was just stopping by to tell you that I passed you a blogging award, here: http://bookwormboulevard.blogspot.com/2010/08/versatile-blogger-award.html
