Sand People": What were your thoughts after looking at the cover page with this title? I go first.
Actually, I thought of a young woman who just packed her bag and left to explore the world, and that sand metaphorically represents the time glass.

I didn't want to read much into the cover and title, but the cover was colorful and seemed nice. The title left me wondering, it showed that the book had mystery infused.

The cover page and the title are attractive and it says that the book may be about an exploration of a young girl in the place that consists of water,sand and some unexpected mystery.

As soon as I saw the cover, it immediately made me think of Nancy Drew, even though it's not the exact same vibe. The image of the young, confident woman carrying a backpack, as well as the book's subtitle, definitely gave me that feeling.

The image of the child carrying a bag evoked a poignant association in my mind, reminding me of a young girl who had gone missing after attending school. I envisioned her wandering to the beach, seeking solace in the ocean breeze as she struggled to find her way back home. However, the actual theme was altogether different, diverging from my initial, somber musings.

It reminded me of "Dune", the expression on the character's face sparked my curiosity, but the book cover color is dull.

The title reminded me of the saying 'as happy as a sandboy.' But of course, the posts in this form indicates the book is not about a happy bunch.

To be honest, the cover page didn't communicate much to me. However, the title was worth noting. A girl trying to find herself maybe. The title, I would say, is a great selection for the book.

The Title Sand People and the cover picture of a young girl standing by the ocean in the background made me think of people who love the sand on the beach. A Mystery Across Time makes me think this girl will solve a mystery about the beach she’s standing in front of. Her eyes look in deep thought like she’s trying to figure something out. Because the girl is wearing a backpack, she’s running away.
