Follow Friday Blog Hop

I am trying something new here called Follow Friday sponsored by Parajunkee's View.  The idea is to check out other people's blogs.

This weeks question is:  Do you judge a book by its cover?

Yes, I do!! I find that the cover gives a feel for the book and can often set the tone.  I often use the cover to pick books depending on my mood.  I love a good cover.  That being said, I have been pleasantly surprised by some books and disappointed by others.

    It's hard not to judge a book by its cover. New follower. =]

    I get it wrong sometimes, too, but I can't help but judge a book by the cover.

    I do judge and I hate that authors don't have much say.

    Hi Coreena! New follower here. Would love for you to follow me. Nice to meet you.

    For me, it is the cover and the title that tempt me to read the blurb. If the blurb reads great, I'll grab the book. I remember the first time I saw Harry Potter's book covers, I was like, O_o...not sure if I liked them. Love the inside but the covers weren't really to my taste.
    Happy Follow Friday!!!

    I can get frustrated when the cover doesn't have anything to do with the story! Great answer. I'm a new follower. My FF is at Coffee Table Reviews
