TGIF!! Friday's Hop and Follow Day! 9/3/2010

Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Crazy For Books every Friday and it's a great way to discover other blogs that you might not find otherwise.  It's also a great way to show support to other book bloggers.  The rules are listed over at Crazy For Books, with a question of the week.  This week the question was submitted by Sarah @ Sarah Reads Too Much
Her question is Do you judge a book by it's cover?
My answer:  While I don't judge the story by it's cover, I have wanted to read a book based on it's cover.  I've seen some covers that are so breathtaking that I wanted to read them before I had any idea what the book was about.  There have also been some covers that if I didn't already know what the book was about, I probably wouldn't have picked it up in the first place.  Once I'm reading the book though, the cover ceases to influence me.  I might still love the cover but if the story isn't any good then the cover becomes just that, a pretty book cover.  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and enjoy the hop.

    Hey! Thanks for stopping by. I see you have The Pillars of the Earth on your shelf. I've always wanted to read that and World Without End... haven't gotten there yet.

    Thanks for dropping by my blog! I'm the same way, the cover may grab me but if it's a poor story then the most fabulous cover design in the world couldn't help it (well, except that it does remain nice to look at, lol).

    While the covers play a huge part in which books I pick up, like you once I start reading it doesn't really matter anymore. Happy hopping!
