Friday Follow #8


Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read.

Q: Have you ever looked at book's cover and thought, This is going to be horrible? But was instead pleasantly surprised? Show us the cover and tell us about the book.



Answer: Yes! It happened to me not too long ago with Anna and the French Kiss. I really loved the book but the cover is just lazy and boring. Plus, it tells nothing about the story or the characters. 

I love to know your opinions. So dash me a comment and I will check out your answers.

  1. Good choice - I think the cover for Anna is lazy too, though I do love the Eiffel Tower in the background, it could be a lot more exciting!

    Hope you have a great weekend!

  2. Apparently many people don't really like this one. oô Hm, I thought the cover was pretty looking, but then, tastes differ. *g*

  3. It really is surprising to end up loving a book when the cover was so blah!

  4. Oh, I'm kind of the opposite of you, with this cover. I think it's kind of pretty and simple, in such an understated way. Plus, I also think that it subtly ties in with the story, as well. It was definitely one of my favorite reads from last year. :)

  5. I haven't read the book yet simply because the cover looks really boring despite the fact that I've heard great things about it. It is on my TBR list though.
