Do you judge a book by its cover?

Yep! I understand that you’re not suppose to and all that. But think about why books have such nice covers now, it’s not just so you have something pretty too look at when you put it down…it’s marketing too. Some publishers put a ton of time into giving a book a beautiful cover so that more people will be drawn in, regardless of the content.

I don’t leave it to just that though, I usually wait and look it up on the internet.  I usually pick it up anyway unless it sounds terrible.
