Friday Blog Hop: Cover Judging

Book Blogger Hop


It's Friday and time to hop. I took a break from the hop last week as I was busy with my oldest child's birthday. Now that the cake making and present buying are behind us I can actually participate this week.

The blog hop is an awesome meme hosted by Crazy-For-Books. If you don't know, it's kind of a big deal. She gets a ton of links every week that lead to new and interesting blogs to follow so check it out! Every week comes with a question as well, just to shake things up a bit.

This week's question is: Do you judge a book by it's cover?

I will totally cop to the fact that I judge books by their cover. It's not a deliberate thing but I admit, a great cover or title will grab my attention and peak my interest enough to pick it up and check it out. If a book has a blah sort of cover there is a good chance I won't bother to even read the synopsis. There are just so many books out there that checking covers is the easiest way to filter through them. This only comes into play when I'm casually browsing. Lately, I go in with a list, grab them and get out before my kids can start whining about looking at boring 'mom' books.
