I would totally pick up that book thanks to that cover too. D: It's so freaking pretty.

/TOTALLY NOT PROCRASTINATING EITHER WHAT

*__* Jody Leeeee art. It makes me feel shallow, but man she does beautifully detailed cover art! I wish I could say the story stood up to that cover, but I just never did manage to successfully get into it! Might give it another shot if I ever found another copy though...

*PROCRASTINATION WUT?*

Eh, sometimes you just have to be shallow about picking up a book actually based on the cover. The old adage of judging them by their covers might be a good metaphor but working in a bookstore for 6 years has taught me anything, you need an interesting cover or people WON'T look at it.

I was the same with the Herbie Brennan books with Fairie Wars - the cover was pretty. I just lucked out that the book was fucking amazing.

*LOL I KNOW RIGHT*

This is funny because I was at a panel discussing the future of publication last weekend and the publishers were saying that we're at the point in publishing where you HAVE to have good cover art, it's not optional anymore. I found that pretty interesting. >.>

Did I read those? I think I read those, MAN, TOO DAMN MANY BOOKS THAT HAVE FAERIES IN THEM. XD

*STILL PROCRASTINATING*
