Q: Worst cover? What is the worst cover of a book that you’ve read and loved?I don't tend to judge a book by it's cover, well not consciously anyway. If the synopsis looks intriguing I will give it a go no matter the cover. If I had to pick a cover that I originally didn't like it would have to be Cinder by Marissa Meyer. It just looked weird in my opinion. It has grown on me now but when I first saw I didn't really like it.
Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles #1) by Marissa Meyer

It looks a bit like one of those free stock images. I really didn't want to pick this up because of the cover. Still, I liked Cinder.

I agree this cover is a little weird. I haven't read it but the cover has always piqued my interest, which is probably the idea, weird or not. New follower via GFC. I have two blogs with (different) FFs on them. They're at LKHill and Musings on Fantasia. Happy Friday! :D
ReplyDeleteIt's so funny how different people's tastes can be. I totally loved this one from the first time I saw it.
ReplyDeleteThe cover is a lil funny looking :) FF#. I follow you ...follow back :)
ReplyDeleteOld follower returning. I agree, the cover has never appealed to me. It looks so contrived.

I actually really liked the Cinder cover - I liked the hint at the whole cyborg thing! But I guess that's personal choice!

I thought that this was a bit of a weird cover, too, especially when I finally saw it in person. It grew on me after a while, though.

I didn't really like or dislike the cover of Cinder. I really did like the book though. Im a new follower :) here's my FF
ReplyDeleteI didn't like the cover the first time I saw it either. I only read it after I saw so many great reviews and I'm so glad that I did. It's definitely a 2012 favorite. :)
