Has a book cover ever completely put you off reading a novel?
Yes! I try to read the inside flap and that doesn’t help. Then i turn to the last page or flip to the middle of the book and read 2 to 4 lines. If that doesn’t intrest me i put it back
Yes and I regret it because I have had people suggest a book so many times and I give it a shot only to have it become a fav. As a creative designer it’s hard not to judge even if it’s not in my best interest lol
This is why I have yet to read Kings of the Wyld or Bloody Rose. I just can’t get past the font on the cover, or the phrases – The boys are back on town, and Girls just want to have fun. It’s so off-putting to me.
Yes, I have been trying to do better, cause you can miss some good stuff.
Yes, Cinder. Unfortunately.
That’s funny, because I picked that one up because of the cover.
That picture of the ankle and foot gives me heebie jeebies.
@Neslihan I have put cinder off for the same reason, the foot/ankle pic just screams sci-fi..and I’m a dark fantasy person..?
I don’t judge a book by his cover ?
Yes
Yes
The cover does impact how I feel about the book.
No cover put me off… but i did buy plenty cuz the cover was pretty ?
All the time!
Yes. I totally judge books by their cover. Isn’t that terrible?!
Yes
Nope
Yes or vice versa. Can be misleading either way
Janet Evanovich
I won’t read anything with a chest (male or female) on it.
Yes. I admit, I can be a cover snob at times. ?
I cover has never stopped me from reading a novel but I have picked more than a few because I liked the cover.
No.
