When the spines of books line up and create an image, I feel irrationally happy.moderntimes wrote: ↑22 Oct 2015, 22:15 Since the books are set in Houston, images of the skyline will also attract local readers. Let's face it --- the purpose of a book cover is to catch the eye of the browsing reader, and these covers should do just that.
Now if the insides can live up to the whole package? Let's blame the author, okay? ha ha

What is grief, if not love persevering?
Grief is just love with no place to go.

I started reading Alice this week and have less than 100 pages left. It's hard to put down! I love it and am amazed at how inventive it is. And dark. Oh so dark.

One thing I absolutely hate on book covers is people. Especially when it's like a shirtless man or something like that. Like no. No one wants to see that

Sometimes a cover is too minimalistic or generic feeling which can make me less likely to consider the book. Every person is different though.
