Hey, loves!
Now, I know I don’t have that many followers just yet, but I’m going to participate in this week’s Book Blogger Hop anyway, just so I can help spread the word about everyone else’s blogs. I’ve been to SO very many awesome blogs lately and I’ve met some pretty amazing people so far, so here we go!
The idea is that you amble on over to the Crazy-For-Books.com blog site and sign up. Then you visit the blogs in the list, check out their content thoroughly, figure out who you want to get to know better, leave thoughtful, insightful, wonderful comments, and just have fun!
This week’s question is from Sarah over at Sarah Reads Too Much –>
Do you judge a book by its cover?
Answer: I would love to say that I do not judge a book by its cover, but I’d probably be lying. I suppose, though, that it depends on the circumstances. If I’m reading through reviews on blogs and choosing books to read, I rarely even look at the cover. I trust the opinions of my fellow bloggers enough to just go with it. However, if I am walking through a bookstore with the sole purpose of browsing and finding a few random books, you can bet your boots that my eye will be drawn to the covers. I like pretty, I like flashy, I like…interesting. Covers that are unusual colors tend to make me stop and look closer. I probably miss a lot of good books this way, but hey, I like shiny things!
And…that’s that.
Have fun, people!
I agree with you on relying on reviews ad what other people think. I don this sometimes but covers are also a great factor. It catches attention anyway, dropping by via the hop. 🙂 I’m also a new follower. Hope you can drop by Cladestine Sanctuary Have great weekend.
Stopping by via the hop…I think it depends – there’s a place and time when book covers come into play as to if I will read the book.
Happy Friday!

Thanks for stopping by my blog! I like your blog too, and I’m following on RSS. 🙂
found you through the hop, you’ve got a great site!
i see that you’re on twitter too? Do you find that it helps you get more blog followers, or is it just more work?
Happy Friday. Yes I judge books by their covers.
