Do You Judge

I would love to say that I don’t judge but it is so hard not to judge a book by what the cover looks like. As all of you know I am an avid reader and I have found lately that when I pick a book to read for myself that I am picking books that have super cool looking covers. I think that is part of the reason I would rather read an actual book instead of reading one on my Nook.

When I received books that have plain covers I always put them off until the last possible day to read them but when books have great covers I find myself wanting to read them right when I get them. I have to say that I always seem to be shocked when I do finally read a book that I wasn’t interested in because of the cover and I fall in love with the story and the authors writing. This has also gone the other way tons of times as well and those times I am so let down.

So the final answer is that yes I do judge a book by its cover but still read the other books where I don’t like the covers as much. I do judge books but I also read books that I don’t like the covers because I learned years ago that even if the cover sucks chances are the book itself is amazing.

Do you judge a book by the cover?

    I actually don’t judge the books by the cover, because a lot of times the covers don’t say much. I read a lot of young adult sci-fi, and romance so the most I can get from a cover is two people holding hands, or an interesting looking symbol that has no relevance until I actually read the book.
    But somehow, I still care a little about that cover because when I read on a Nook I have the worst time figuring out if I should buy or not…I need to at least flip through the pages.
    Do you have a post on Nook/Kindles vs. Paper books?

    I found you on SITgirls forum,

    be blessed.
