Follow Friday / Book Blogger Hop (9)


 Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Rachel of Parajunkee's View.

This weeks question is:
DO YOU JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER?

I can relate with this! Well, obviously... I am! I do judge a book from its lovely cover. Though I still want to know more about it on the inside. Sometimes, I find books have this very unappealing covers but the contents are brilliant! Covers are a glimpse on what the book has. But I am not always like that. I have found one book that I totally like but unfortunately it is not what I expected. Anyway, there is nothing wrong by judging a book by its cover. :]

I think everyone judges a book by its cover to a certain extent. I don't think it is a good habit because great books written by talented authors are ignored. But...I can't help it!

Hi! New follower here. Would love for you to follow me. Nice to meet you.

For me, it is the cover and the title that tempt me to read the blurb. If the blurb reads great, I'll grab the book. I remember the first time I saw Harry Potter's book covers, I was like, O_o...not sure if I liked them. Love the inside but the covers weren't really to my taste.
Happy Follow Friday!!!

Hopping through. The book's cover is important to me but not the most important thing.

I think we can all agree that even the most beautiful book cover can't sell a book if the writing's not there. Book cover art may, at best, help steer me in the book's direction (especially if I'm in a book store) but it's not going to hypnotize me into buying it right then and there.

I expound on all the marketing qualities of a good book. Just follow me back to my book blog - http://www.howardsherman.net

Thank God it's Follow Friday!?
