I forgot this Tuesday to post my 2nd ‘Talk to Me Tuesday’ topic. I was just so excited to share my The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas review that it skipped my mind. I can’t say it won’t happen again, but I will try and remember correctly for next time.
Today’s topic: Book Covers
Are you a judger of book covers? (How horrible does that sound? Not very nice, but as long as you only judge actual book covers and not people, you should be ok.)
Similar to selecting a new bottle of wine: labels, covers, what have you, are important in my decision making process. I will more than likely read a book synopsis if the cover is intriguing, and pass if its too boring/vague/cluttered, I could go on.
Below are some of my favorite covers of books I have read, or that are on my TBR list. Whether I liked the book or not, you have to admit they are pretty, pretty:
Are you a book cover “judger?” (Remember: a nice one, not a mean one) What are some of your favorite book covers, regardless of how you rated the book?

As much as I shouldn’t be I am drawn to a pretty cover. That being said, I will read a book with not a great cover if I can tell by the synopsis that it will be something I will enjoy.

I’ll hold my hand up high and say I often judge a book by it’s cover. I have also been know when I’ve been asked to read a book by an author that is great, but the cover is rubbish to tell them they would get more sales if they changed it. A few have and it has worked.

I try not to judge but I tend to sucked in by colorful graphics

Yes I am a book cover judger. I know they say don’t judge the book by its cover, but I just can’t help it

I like the one for The Music Shop. I like the contrasting orange and green. Did it take place in the 70’s by any chance?

If I remember I think it was the 80’s.

I always choose books by covers. I know it’s not right but if a book doesn’t have a good cover, I am more likely to pass it by.
