Book Blogger Hop

I am taking part in in the Book Blogger Hop again this week hosted by Crazy-for-books to explore all the great book blogs out there!

This week's question comes from SarahReadsTooMuch

Do you judge a book by its cover?
I love when a book has a fantastic looking cover that makes me want to pick it up.  But on the other hand many of the books I read are on recommendation or by authors I already know, so I go mainly from that.  A poor cover (or simply one I do not like) may well put me off a little in a bookshop but will not stop me reading it or looking at the back cover, sometimes you just have to have a look what the book is about if the cover is really bad!  Some of the covers, especially the paranormal romance end of things, have a tendency towards cheesy covers, I sometimes feel like hiding those as I don't want people bothering me when I'm reading out and about!  Oh, and then there are the covers with the hot men on them, some good some not so. 

I love a great cover but I love the book in it more so can look past a bad cover!

Happy Friday!

  2. Hi :) If I'm in a bookstore and browsing, as hard as I try not to, it's those bold covered covers that catch my eye first. Then the title. Hope you enjoy your weekend !!

  4. Hopping by through the Blog Hop.
    Happy Friday!
    it's hard to walk around a bookstore and not judge by a cover to peak your interest.

  5. Yes, but bad covers lower the possibility of my ever picking up the book considerably. :-)
