The Book Blogger Hop was originally created by Jennifer @ Crazy-For-Books With Jennifer’s permission, Billy @ Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer relaunched the hop. Each week there will be a weekly prompt featuring a book related question.
Question:
Does the cover of a book affect whether you are more willing to read it? (submitted by Julie @ JadeSky)





I used to think that I was immune to the covers of books, but since I’ve started blogging, there have been some books that I picked up just because they had such a pretty cover, even though the description of the book was not necessarily in my wheelhouse. From Blood and Ash comes to mind immediately, and The Inheritance Games. I found the covers better than the books themselves
On the other hand, I’ve had the opposite happen. Really horrible cover art turns out to be a wonderful book. There have been many books that don’t look appealing, but are actually quite charming books.
What about you? Does the cover of a book suck you in?
Aw, surely! Sometimes I just can’t resist a pretty cover, especially if it is accompanied by an intriguing preview.

I’ve gone through the same! I feel like I’m more immune to covers over time but in the same breath, sometimes the cover gets me more likely to read the synopsis when I’m browsing.
