Q: Would you or do you choose a book solely on the cover?
A: I have. Sometimes it pays off and other times it does not. Sometimes the cover is the best thing going for the book, and other times, the cover doesn't do the tale justice.

    Happy Canada Day weekend. :) I can't wait to watch the celebration on TV. (I live in very Northern Maine along the border and frequently attend the festivities)

    I usually pick up the book based on the synopsis. Great answer!

    As with most of us, the cover is definitely what attracts me in the first instance but I always read the blurb too. 😉

    YES!!! The Friday 56 book? I want to check that out!
    You are so right about covers!! There are books I would not have read, simply because the cover looked boring. Then, there were books that had me salivating. Result? An unfinished book because of an undeveloped story.

AVAILABLE ON DIGITAL NOW AND DVD MARCH 23!
