Do you judge a book by its cover?
Honestly? Yes, I do. To me the cover is a huge part of the book. I know you aren't supposed to judge a book by it's cover but...it is the first thing you see. I'm not going to pick up a book unless I'm somehow attracted to the cover. The cover doesn't necessarily have to be beautiful, it can be interesting. Just the other day someone was raving about how awesome a book was but the cover was completely bland. So, below I'm going to show you guys a few covers for books coming out in 2012 that I would definitely pick up even if I didn't know what they were about.
Beautiful Covers
Interesting Covers
I have a picture of Incarnate on mine too :))) I love that cover!! We need that book so bad!! I definitely agree with you about judging books by their cover haha. I'm a total cover slut.
ReplyDeleteLike you, I do judge books based on their covers. For example, I tend to stay away from books whose concept for their covers are reused over and over again on different books. I like something interesting and unique!
ReplyDeleteOut of the books you mentioned, I really like Everneath and Incarnate! I especially like how Everneath's cover is all wispy and how Incarnate's cover is all red and blue.
Anyway, nice post! :)
