Yes, it's that time of the week again! It's Follow Friday which is hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. The question of the week is:
Best cover? What is the best cover of a book that you've read and didn't love?
(Oh my goodness I completely misread the question earlier today and thought it was books that we loved! Which, was why my original choice was Shadow and Bone.)
I don't know if it's the "best" cover, exactly; however, I really loved the cover for The Little Woods. At the same time though, it didn't end up living up to my expectations.
I love this cover, too. I agree, I generally don't like people's faces staring at me in a book cover. I like to come up with my own mental images of what people look like from reading the book- that's why I read for hours a day instead of watching hours of TV every day.

what peoples faces?? wait did the post get changes AFTER people commented? Well, that makes this confusing, should have just added to it instead, lol, glad my post was after the change so it wont confuse anyone, lol. Sucks that both host did different questions, lol
DeleteI really like this cover as well! I haven't read it yet, but it's nice to hear the story was fantastic too!

I have to agree- sometimes not having models on the cover can be refreshing! Old GFC follower !

This is quite interesting, I like that you've picked a book that is unique! Although I do prefer girly girl covers (I'm lame) I actually like this one. It reminds me of Aladdin because of the castle haha.

I wouldn't say this is my favourite cover, but I definitely agree it is great. It really sets the tone for the book. Great choice!

I wouldn't say I love this cover, but you're right-- it is unique. It's a shame you didn't enjoy the book, though.

Oooh! My choice was Shadow and Bone, too. Anyway, you did actually have it right. Turns out, this week the hosts have different questions. One is the book you loved that had a pretty cover and the other was the book you didn't like.

The other question you answered is featured in Alison. Parajunkee has this one! :) So no worries, your other cover was a great answer to Allison :)

I just saw someone else with 'books we loved.' Maybe the question got changed somewhere along the way?
ReplyDeleteAnyways. I'm a New follower. Here's My FF, please follow back if you get chance. :)
OOH I havent' heard of this book before. Of course you said you didnt enjoy it but the cover is cool.
ReplyDeleteIm doing things a little differently this week. i'm having the hardest time coming up with a cover that i loved but didnt like the book (Parajunkee's question) so I am hopping around and following people first while I try and think of my answer.
Im a new follower and email subscriber of yours :)

I am a new follower, and I did Alisons post, (you did not misread it, that's what she has, Parajunkee did a different question, which I don't like, I like to be more positive, so what I loved of cover, AND book is what I did) I never heard of this book you posted.
ReplyDeleteSo, if your interested in that question, come see my post. I wont be changing it, as I like the original question better.

Everyone seems to be putting *loved* instead! It was difficult for me to think of a memorable cover that I didn't like - but eventually it came to me. :)
