Subject: I agree with Jam. I am more drawn to titles rather than covers. Most authors don't get much say in the cover art of their books. Deanna Raybourn and her fans both complained that the reprinted covers of her Lady Julia books didn't fit the feisty main character. If I had just looked at the cover I would not have read her books.
In reply to: Jam 's message, "Depends on what kind of book I´d like to read? Mostly Iike abstract covers best. Since I read mostly fiction, I don´t really want to see real people on the cover, I´d rather imagine. Water color pastorals or country look - hmm, depends, again, on what kind of book it is. Mostly, the cover needs to fit the story. I´m more drawn to titles rather than covers." on 03:56:02 10/19/12 Fri

[> [> Agree with Jamm, I read mostly fiction, when I read a romance I like a pastoral or ocean view picture that sets a scene for me. No people. When I'm reading Vince Flynn or Brad Thor, dark, shadowy color, a man in outline, but no face. I leave the rest to my overactive imagination. ;) -- mkim, 15:17:56 10/20/12 Sat [1]
