Reflection 5: Book Covers
The cover is vital when it comes to deciding whether or not I
read a book. I lean more towards the simple, modern covers when I do choose a
book by its cover. Covers that contain scenes or pictures are too difficult to
interpret and sometimes have nothing to do with the book. It bugs me when I finish
a book, and the cover is completely irrelevant. I also do not like when books have the sleeve
covering it. That is really complicated for me and I don’t like dealing with
the extra piece. The book I’m reading right now has a really interesting cover.
When you look at it, it’s simple and it is easy to relate to the book. But
there is a textured pattern on the book that you would only discover if you
touch it. It is a really cool addition and sticks out in my mind of book covers.
Overall, I prefer more girly book covers. That is probably because I enjoy
girly books. Typically, when a cover is manly, the story is about fighting or
other manly stuff that I do not appreciate. The cover defines the book. It is
up to the individual reader if that is the book they want to read.
I agree, I think covers are a huge factor in deciding if I read a book or not.
